Revell Miss Deal funny car

One of my all time favorite model kits . Funny , I had this kit maybe 5 or 6 times over the years but never built it as intended . I always used different bodies and then used the kit body on a dragster frame to make a fuel coupe . This then is the first time it is being built stock . I did a swirl a delic paint job just to see how that worked . I decided to go ahead and build it like that even tho kind of weird . At least it’s different . I also put some rust holes in it just because . Old crappy body on a restored chassis .

I've yet to buy one of these kits... ?

Your build is looking pretty good... ??

I have one in the stash, will use it someday with a different body is the plan. an odd ball early 60's Johan rambler is my plan. just need said rambler..........

Thanks Guido. Jason, I did the same thing several times with different bodies. 53 Vette and 63 Vette were the latest.

I also have a 62 johan dart that was a glue bomb buy, might need to look that over. just the right amount of early 60's fugly mopar badness!! I love those old mopars. .

Thanks Jason. I know the paint job is silly but it's a model so what the heck. Been thinking of trying that method for years. It's one of those jobs you hate or you really hate it ! ?

I like it!  It’s a fun old kit. I built mine for the 24 Hour Build. Chose it because I always wanted to build one!

Not silly, that's the fun thing about model building is its expression it allows you. This forum inspires me, to think outside the box. Until I seen your thread my model was sitting on the shelf and now I'm forming a plan to move forward with it.

I hope you post some pics when you start building it Jason.

Nice job Ray.  Always a fun kit.  The hemi and the wheels and tires are great, and if you take your time, they build up nice, as you see here...

Love the paint, too!!

Thank you Ralph.
