This is the Atlantis Fiat kit with a parts box small block. For those not familiar with this kit buy a minimum of 6 of them and always keep a few of the shelf. For those who are familiar with it already have a few in stock.Most of the small block Chevy came from the double dragster kit. The blower with a molded in two port Hillborne injection I think was from the AMT 40 Ford .The back wheels and slicks are sourced from the AMT 33 Willy’s. The front wheels are also double dragster the decals are from Chris Walsh. Paint by Testors until next time thanks for looking.

Nice to see a Fuel Altered that not many people are familiar with today.

I searched for this car to do a restoration on it about 25 to 30 yrs ago. The car disappeared out of the Bakersfield area around 1970's.

I've spoken with the people from Valley Steel and the only remaining thing of the car is a huge poster on the wall of the managers office.

Since I was unable to find the car to do the restoration or preserve it then I continued on with the "Magic Muffler" Fiat Blown Fuel Altered.

That particular car now resides in my garage.  Hopefully I'll find the Valley Steel Fiat as I still look for it periodically. I'm building a model of it as well.
