DanL Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Couldn't resist building this one because of the great colors. I believe it's just a re-packaging of the old Badman model that's been around forever so some pretty sketchy fit and finish issues but with a lot of adjusting and adapting it doesn't look half bad. Always loved the 55 Chevy.... one of those cars that just has a certain timeless look to it and it looks good in all it's variations. I changed a few things and added a front chrome bar to hold the moon tank also used blue on the roof and did not use the clear hood scoop... Looks good on the shelf. Cheers Dan 10
TransAmMike Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Well Dan, yours is one of the best looking builds mostly OOB of that model I've seen on here. I agree what you say about "sketchy fit" issues. I especially hate how the firewall fits. I did mine all black. Anyway, great job!!👍
karbuildr Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Excellent build. Not an easy kit but yours looks great.

Sledsel Posted January 27 Posted January 27 Cool old kit that always looks good. Nice job. I like the color change on the roof from the box art.
