Bro, your 55 is crazy sick..I like the stance, color combination and engine detail..I never thought about using the 80s Pro Stock chassis's to kit bash with the AMT 55 kit..You know got my juices going..Job well done my friend.

Yea.. Check it out...The wheel base is what you have to match up.For instance.The Firebird,Camaro Pro Stocks have a different wheelbase.As to Bob Gliddens Thunderbird Pro Stock.(longer)The old Jukebox Ford Pro stock is in between the both...The Oldsmodile Pro Stock will fit for smaller wheelbase cars..I have been building these for 15+years..Trial and error is how I figured it out...They are alot of fun to build..The chassis's need alittle cutting and sanding to get them to fit right.And easy to detail to your liking...Have fun try it..I can't wait to see you build one...
