That's cool.   I picked one up a while ago.  Windshield frame is broken but salvageable

Nicely done! My favourite kit! I have a few built, 2 red and a turquoise one from a collection.

These are fascinating!

Very cool David, I looked for one of these for years and finally was able to get one a few years back.  Totally maid  my year.

Cool custom. You can see the origins of the "Bad Man" in the seats and the quirky mold lines around the forward upper part of the door.

Looks very clean !!!

Thanks for posting that Dave - I remember oggling the pictures in Model Car Science ads but have never seen photos of a built one until now.  Who knew the Badman seats started out here?  The little bumperettes are too cool.

 

Cheers

Nice build. I dig it. Imagine being under that top on a sunny day!

Absolutely Fabulous! I can't remember the last time I saw one of these. Too bad they can't or won't restore and reissue this kit. As much as we've all enjoyed building Badmans over the years (my own humble effort below) , it would be just Too Cool to have this back in its original form. Thanks for sharing this one!

A nice bit of model car history well rendered!
