ChiTown Hustler

[Howard Cohen]

I started this kit a few years ago to give to a friend, Gerry Nimz. Gerry had bought the car about 1971 to take to shows in Canada and Europe. Sadly Gerry passed away while I was building it and I put it back in the box. I got back to it this week and painted it, Tamiya Bright Red, TS49 (not a good photo from my cellphone) and Clear, TS13. It should be fun trying to do the decals as I want to build the original version, not the later clone, which has different graphics and colour. The original car was red while the recent clone has pearl in it. My guide is the original ChiTown Hustler from when Gerry owned the car, as seen in the photographs that I took when we cleaned the car and did some minor repairs.
