"Some assembly required." The original car in a create. Like the idea.

Like everyone else has pointed out, the paint work is super smooth looking and a great match to the OEM Blue. The chrome trim along with the wheels and tires all look just like the real car.

Beautiful looking finishes. So cleanly detailed with all the brass and painted body lines.

Great looking body mods on the '55 and the early style boat is a good match with the El Camino body style.

Beautiful looking restoration of this old model. The paint color shows the body lines well. Like the stance.

Great looking paint finish, you may not think of it as shiny, but it looks much more like the real car. The chrome and body trim all are cleanly done. Like the showroom look.

Great looking build. The very best part is the time you got to spend with your daughter building it.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish. The wide whites and hub cap combination sets the era of the overall look. Like how you positioned the open hood and doors to show the engine and interior detailing.

Great looking MGB. Always fun to build something from the past. A friend of mine also had an MGB from the '60's. He spent a lot of time working on keeping it running, but he always had a grin on his face when driving it. I guess that was part of the charm that these cars had.

Great looking build and you would never know of the issues that you were faced with in the beginning.

Great concept turning a race car into a streetcar. The paint work along with the flames look great. Like the power train and the interior.

Great looking paint and Boss stripes. Like the showroom appearance.

Beautiful looking build, almost like looking at a modern-day street rod. The paint color and finish look great. Cleanly detailed engine and chassis as well as the engine. Like the stance and the way you detail painted the wells as it adds a lot of depth to their appearance.

Many years ago, I was into Dirt Bikes and lived in the mountains and for some reason thought I could ride my motorcycle with its knobby tires to work on the plowed roads. A couple of days of that and almost wearing out a good pair of work boots using my legs like training wheels I soon realized my folly. Like the old saying "The Good Lord looks out for drunks and little boys".

Without a valid infostructure to support EV's they serve little purpose for use beyond your city limits or hundred miles at best from your home recharging station. Remember you still have to get home so cut your travel distance in half from your home base when considering a trip of any great distance. While there are some recharging facilities out there you are still faced with weather or not, they are functioning, will your vehicle be able to use them, and how long are you going to have to wait in line to use the chargers. Ever wonder why Hurtz has off'd their EV rental fleet?

Every one of our bodies and especially your vision is different. I was blessed with 20/20 vision from birth and distances as well as close, model building, was never a problem for me until about 40 years of age. I admit to taking it all for granted since I had never experienced any challenges like so many of my friends. In my case some of the changes for myself were related to my extensive time looking at computer screens having to do with my work. I'm sure age was a good part of the issue as well. The Optometrists that I have been treated by since have all been excellent and would explain everything they were seeing with my issues and even would go over the x-rays of my eyes and would explain everything that they were concerned about. Did you know you can have a freckle on you eyeball? A couple of years ago during my annual exams it was pointed out that I was at a point where the prescription for reading and up-close work was no longer going to be effective, and I was needing Cataract surgery. The lenses that are available today with Cataract surgery are mazing. Your options, if at this point, are best discussed with the surgeon. The pain was all but nonexistent and with only a few daily eye drops, something I have an issue with, but I survived. Your vision, especially as we age, is something that requires monitoring as closely as any other aspect of our lives.

Something to consider if you decide to repair the window moldings on the opening. In the past while changing the rear window moldings on a Suburban build, I used some Plastruct strips of the same size to fill the gaps and even completely replace the kits moldings. This would also offer you an opportunity to change the moldings in any way that may look better to you.

The "glass" for the rear doors can easily be replaced with almost any clear plastic you can find or buy.

Interesting looking grill & headlight setup. Just an idea, I have found that the grills from any of the different model companies offering models of trucks from this era will interchange.

The price might be right, but your sight is nothing to take a short cut on. I have found a good Optometrist will have far better equipment and the ability to know how to do the required testing to give you the best outcome for your sight needs. They will be checking far more than what lenses prescription is needed to correct any vision issues.

Great looking paint color and finish. The chrome trim looks good. Like the engine detailing.

Great looking engine and chassis.

Don't take this wrong, this is a cool looking street rod. The colors made me think of the old Checker Cab colors that used to roam the streets of Chicago and New York.

Good looking color. The side view of the body looks nice and smooth.

Great looking combo. The van hood issue isn't a big deal since you wouldn't be able to see much of the engine anyway. Having owned a short wheelbase G20 van years ago this is the way they sat with the heavier duty suspension. Like the way the boat turned out. I wish we had more boat kits like this to tow behind our truck builds.
