Traditional Hot Rod model builders may want to check this out. 

It's the first of a series of on-line tutorials showing some building ideas and steps that led to the pale green with white scallops '30 A Highboy seen on the NNL Cult Theme table at the 37th NNL Nats last fall and pictured below.  

This may be a little on the basic side given that talents of some of you that post on this site, but for others that want to try a little kitbashing that will yield big results, give this a look.  

Thanks...TIM

I did do an article kit that...it was the 50 most significant hot rod kits of the last 50 years...it was in the May, 2009 issue of World of Rods magazine.  

For a picture of the magazine cover and more...here's a link to the text of a follow-up piece on this subject - including the top kit from each decade and the top kit of all time (the latter being a tie) - that I posted at my Fotki site a few years ago... thanks for the comments and question.....TIM .
