Monogram '39 Chevy Gasser

[Jantrix]

I should really be calling this one, Left Overs. Because it sure is. She came to life from my parted out 1/24 kits.

The kit really lends itself to a classic gasser very well. The straight axle and rear wheels/tires are from the Boothill Express, the I-6 from the Monogram '53 Chevy coupe. It has some great speed parts.

Without further ado............some shiny just for Jim.

Nice model. Great paint and the 6 is a nice change. I like the fact it's not an over-the-top style gasser, it's something you might have actually seen back in the day.

Rob, that's wild! I love it, from the color to the tires and straight six. Awesome!

[slusher]

Very cool and sharp build Rob..

[lazlow]

Looks Great Rob!

[Jantrix]

Thanks everyone. I'm glad you like it. I did do a bit of research. Straight sixes were in fact raced in gassers, and since the '53 came with such a nice one it was a no brainer. I really had to pull it against the firewall to get it to fit though.

[DumpyDan]

Very Cool, Love It!

That turned out cool! Nice paint and excellent color. The decals fit perfectly to this one also, and that Six Cylinder Engine is nice & Different choice. Great Job.

Thanks very much guys, the decals came from the recent re-issue of the Thames gasser.
