  1. I was really pumped to put this model together. This is the Boyd Coddington model kit. But like you said, the rear panel of the back seat is missing and looks really retarded that way. I had some major fitting issues while assembling the body to the chasis and had to move the engine toward the front just enough that it made the the driveshaft not connect to the transmission. Needless to say I was pissed. Also had a very brittle king pin break while assembling the tie rod, but got it rigged up anyway. I had to get up and leave the kit several times so I wouldn't smash it to pieces. Overall the kit looks pretty good until you flip it over and see a non-functioning drive shaft.
  2. He's right, the decals are very fragile. I really wanted to use the black Super Bee side stripes. Got one side put on, then the other side tore in two with no way of fixing it (too small to work with). My kit also contained a lot of flash which resulted in alot of trimming. Not one off my favorite kits at all.
