    I was hoping to find a six cylinder from the AMT 60 Chevy p/u to make it one of the cheapest 57s but painted the engine yellow to be a 265 so it will have at least one option,trying to decide to use the six lug rims or find some 5 lug rims since its not going to be a Black Widow race car.

    In the last three years I had to put a dog and a cat down and still miss them very much,would love to get another dog but I still work and not home much so last fall got another cat. Its not easy to let go and their memory will be around forever.

    It was built using some new and mostly junk parts.

    They were smoking something when that kit was designed.

    This is that switchers kit that is horrible,did not turn out perfect but got it more looking as a 32 then it was supposed to.

    The ZZ top coupe and the 90s chopped top version was advertised as having a sbc but actually had the Pontiac made to look like a sbc.

    I will look for that kit.

    I have two AMT roadster bodies so maybe time to see what I can make.

    I picked up a 64 thunderbolt rebuilder and would like to build it as a 289 hipo version so do any of the mustang kits have a good one.

    To keep costs down I buy rebuilders and try to use parts I have in stock along with parts picked up at swapmeets.
  14. junkyardjeff
    I am still looking for one.
  15. junkyardjeff
    I would like to build one but do not ever remember seeing one made.
  16. junkyardjeff
    All I can say is I wish I would have done it sooner.

    All the plastic from this model is now just too brittle,I dropped the frame and it broke so just small parts will be used from it and i really wanted to restore it but will have to look for a later release to build.

    I now have to repair the modifications I done trying to put a stock frame under it but is starting to look like a car now,its got a stock firewall and inner fenders and will get a heater box.I started this before Revell came out with one.

    I have some mud flaps on the way but still need to find some tail lights

    I dropped the frame and it broke so the gasser frame might go back under it,I was hoping to use a bunch of parts from the Revell 57 Nomad but its just too brittle and will only use small parts.

    I had the body and using the frame and other parts from my Revell 57 Nomad so I am going to build this 57 as a old race car put back on the street,power will be from a dual quad 425 Buick and 4 speed after I remove the automatic trans. Hood will be filled and not sure on the color yet.
  22. junkyardjeff
    Its now parts,found a old MPC 2 door sedan body and using the frame and firewall from the Nomad kit to make it look like a old race car put back on the street.
  23. junkyardjeff
    I just have not done much in resin yet and just seeing if any were made in plastic first.
  24. junkyardjeff
    My 40 year old Revell 57 Nomad is too brittle to restore and would like a wagon and does not have to be a Nomad so what is out there,I know there is a resin Nomad but is there a regular 2 door wagon or a 4 door wagon being made in plastic.
  25. junkyardjeff
    I tried to work on the body and more broke so its going to be used for parts,going to look for a new kit if I want a Nomad again.
