I know that Lots of People on this forum have a bad attitude about Lowriders, so Ill start off by saying that this is a lowrider build. That being said, I have started with a StreetBurners Monte Carlo SS, and a Jevries Resin LS conversion kit, consisting of bumpers front and back, grille, headlight buckets and lenses, and rear tail lights. I have started by properly fitting and securing the bumpers, and cutting out the trunk, removing the spoiler and jambing it all up. Still working on the Jamb, gotta mold it a bit more, and make it flow, but im working off lots of reference pics. reworkin the interior, LS style Im almost done spending time on the trunk jamb. A bit more filling and sanding is needed to be where I want. Im happy with it overall quick mock up to see how it looks. the cnc machined valve covers are not a right fit for this motor

not sure why everyone has such a bad attitude towards lowriders. Kool build none-the less! good job

I have had this wagon kicking around for a while. Scored in on ebay a few years back, and have been itchin to get into it. It is a complete, and un-assembled kit, the original owner stuck the bumpers and tail lights on, but never glued them. It still has the original decal sheet, and instructions with it. I am thinking something like HOK strato blue pearl, with a snow white top. and mabey a 2 tone blue interior. For wheels I have chose Chevy Rally wheels from the first issue of the new 69 nova, as they appear to be the most correct. I am undecided on what to do engine wise. I am thinking of either robbing a 6cyl from a trumpeter kit, or replicating a "Heidts bolt in subframe" with control arms etc, and using the 350 from the 69 nova kit. If I do decide to build the subframe, I would also like to replicate some fenderwell headers etc. I will be slow at updating as I work away from home week in week out. but I will make sure to keep it updated.

mademan replied to evilone's topic in WIP: Model Cars
not sure why everyone still thinks these are rare kits..... if I alone have 16...... they cant be to hard to get. I paid 50- or a bit more for my first 2, then the rest were all 25.00 scores... mostly still sealed. they also ran a re-release in 2000 consisting of a couple thousand ambulance kits..... the only true "RARE" hearse kit, is the black molded, there were 50 made, and were a promo run, issued in the plain brown cardboard box, with a printed black and white photo of the hearse taped to it ( as seen above in my photo) -
