Ken,  does this kit have an engine and chassis?

It's the old General Lee kit. Has a steel axle through pin holes on the rear. The axle sits between the stands for the axle holes. The front has two stands and two plastic pins that goes through the wheel backs and glues into the holes in the stand. Very cheap made kit. I used it to build the bad guy's car from the 1986 tv movie the "Gladiator" Had Robert Culp in it, Rick Dees the girl from the Robo Cop movies too.

I got the engine work started. wish it wasn't molded all in black. there's enuff flash from the old molds to pour three more kits. hehehe.... they definitely half cheeked the interior and chassis. I have a can of burnt orange I might use on the body.

Looks good, but that dist. sits in there at an angle. That's why the valve cover had the slanted cut to it on the side there. Not complaining, just informing. lol

just one of the shortcomings of this kit. dist. base comes molded in the water pump in the vertical position.

Ken the chassis and interior look great. It seems funny that they have front seat belts but none in the back. 

thanks Dan, I got some paint on the body finally. I mocked it up with the chassis to get a feel what it will look like.
