Clear body kits


Recommended Posts

  • 1 year later...

The Polar Lights tinted kits were called "chase kits" because you had to chase around different stores trying to find one. They were packaged one in a dozen box so smart retailers would get the dozen box and sell the tinted kit at a premium. Sheesh, just make them all tinted why don't ya? I think I bought one and then realized I just needed to buy the clear kit and paint it with translucent paint. I don't see the clear kits at swap meets much anymore.

I always wanted the David Pearson GTO ever since viewing it in the April Fools article on "Clearview 2000!" Great gag, wonder if I can find that issue in my library? There's a few of those kits on ebay this week, wonder if Round 2 is envisioning a repop?

Wish I had some of those clear hoods from the sixties. I might work on the 53 Stude to whet my appetite.

Cheers,

Doc
