I built my first kit at age 6 and it was the Revell Snap Together Volkswagen bug, and have been building since then. That was 44 years ago for me!

I am running 15 inch wheels on my Datsun 510 because not only do they look better, but, 14 and 13 inch tires are hard to find, especially in low profile sizes. And even 15 inch tires are getting scarce. My old Chevelle had 15 steel wheels that where a bit wider than stock and finding decent tires to fit was not easy, or cheap. I know some of you are thinking donk size wheels when you hear larger wheels, but that is not always the case. Nothing wrong with going one size up on wheels.

This is just the worst, and as someone who was caught in the fires here in San Diego back in 2003, Cedar Fire, it is hell on earth. My thoughts and prayers go out to all. Bite me! Chris Matthews!

How about freezing it?

Probably the modern style Revell Top Fuel and Funny Cars I have them all, and after building a couple of them, they just bored me, like the NASCAR kits!

I kinda finished the Chopped Deuce version back in the early 80's, but never actually did. too many little parts and not enough skill

Yup, this one had all the Gasser goodies in it. This one did not...

Well I'll be dipped! Thanks for the history run through!

Are you talking about the Monza Wagon?

How do you get a Monza out of a Vega? Two totally different cars

So, no gasser parts in the 55. That's a shame

One current, and kinda easily available source would be the Monogram Slingster

Hey! Mods! STOP DELETING MY POSTINGS!! How is that for discord!?

According to this website, http://www.daedalus-berlin.de/Fw190D9_triebwerk.htm , the tank on the side is a lubricant tank. No mention of what the top item is

This is a dumb thread

Same guts, different bodies...

Nice build! Can't wait to get one myself!
