'55 Chevy Pro Stortsman

[W-409]

This is built from Revell's kit. It's a quite good kit. Had a bit of problems but it's good, i think. Added some details, paint is from unknown manufacturer. Some decals on it and clear. Let me know, what you think...!

nice job !

Thanx guys for nice comments. I'm not sure, maybe i'll add missing door handles. But ohterwise it's ready. That paint wasn't very good, because after one coat of clear paint seperated off the body. Places where paint seperated were so small pieces that i fixed it whit Revell's enamel paint.

Kenny, to step in for Niko for a minute, I've built about a dozen of these frames check out the doorslammers menu in my photobucket. They can be a littlie tricky around the drivers partof the cage but otherwise are pretty much hassle free. I have noticed a few builds with a wheel up but that just means you have to pay a little bit more attention when glueing the front strut assembly in place.hope this helps a bit .

Niko, nice build

Niko,

What did you use for the plug wires and carb linkage? I am building this one right now.

[W-409]

Thank you all. Yes a bit problems with that roll cage but othervise parts fit quite well. Plug wires are Detail Master red racing wire and that carb linkage is somekind of thin metal wire. Don't know, where I got it, but it's very useful.

WOW!!!!......great detail......very cool model.

Thanks, John! Next racecar, '60 Impala with tubeframe is at the starting point.
