  1. I had one of these kits when I was 12 or 13 years old. I don't recall that I finished building it but I do remember that I enjoyed working on it. When I found this kit at a swap meet a couple of months ago, I just had to get it and take another shot at it. The box said that the kit was "Molded in Color". It's grey with little sparkly bits (bleah). It's probably supposed to be silver like the illustration on the box. There's just a little bit of clean up. Not too bad considering the likely age of the molds. On an actual car the floor boards would have most likely been painted with the same black paint as the frame. Treating them as lightly weathered wood however, creates more visual interest, The lightly weathered chassis with the wheels and all the bottom bits installed. I decided that I wanted to do a more basic "out of the box" build so I didn't add any fuel lines or plug wires to the engine. The fan will be added during final assembly. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

  8. That's funny because I was thinking about you the other day- wondering where you'd got to. If I remember correctly, you were working on building a 1:1 classic Chrysler of some sort and I figured that's where all your free time was going. It's good to see you back at the bench. David G.
