'57 Ford "Hypersonic Chariot"

[curt raitz]

Here we go...

Picked up the Revell '57 Ford Gasser at the local hobby shop (BCT Hobby in Hollister, CA). 

Decided to build the "Hypersonic Chariot" as depicted on the box straight "Out-of-the Box".

Paint is Model Master One Shot Inca Gold, clear-coated with Model Master Ultra Gloss Clear after applying the decals.

What an excellent kit, it was a joy to build.

That looks terrific! Don't think that I ever built a "box art" car. Don't know if I could, but that Ford is awesome!

Great looking build. That style looks like it needs something a little more intimidating than a 312.

Very nice! It could BE the box art model!

This is the first thing I thought when I saw it! I'll have this same one I'm building done this week. It will NOT look this good.

Yours came out great! I got one of this kit today as a gift. I hope mine comes out as good as yours.

That looks great! Looks like I need to buy this kit too. You did a very nice and clean job with yours, the Moon tank looks spot on in there and I like those white headers too. Great job!

[Metaldrumm]
