I'm slightly partial to the Bad Actor version only because that is the one that was available when I was a kid. But I do like the looks of the Quicksilver

[Steven W Zimmerman]

Wow, haven't seen that F&F body / kit for a long time ! I mastered that for Ed, some 18 years ago..........'Z'

[Edsel-Dan]

I wonder if Ed "Drag City Castings" Fluck still has the masters for it??!!

I would Love to find one!!

It would also let me restore the 60 El Camino I have

Those are the correct stock tail lights I need!!!

I have all 4 versions of this kit, I built the Original Street Fighter Way Back When!!
The the Quicksilver, and Bad Actor

I had to get a replacement body for that one (stil have the damaged one)

Serious dip/warp in the upper body on the left side.. Like a tree lay over onto it

The decals in my Original Street Fighter are more Navy/Dark blue than Purple.

I built it then without paint, then some years later di a rebuild/resto on her

and painted the body with Testor's Competition Orange.

I need to dig them out, as I think I need to again restore the Street Fighter

and Quicksilver.

I haven't even opened the Shrink wrap on the S-F2 issue yet!!

And Yes, I do want a couple of the re-tooled Original S-F kit too

Complete with the Red windows & Headlight covers!!

I replaced the Stiff-mounted kit rear suspension in the 3 I built with

rear axles, springs & drive shafts fro AMT Chevy van kits!!

And Yes, I had to make risers to get everything lined up in the wheel well openings!

Here's what I done with mine. Just kinda added my own custom touches, This started out as the Street Fighter kit. I used the clear windshield from a Bad Actor kit and the red sections from the Street Fighter. The front grille and tail panel are from a scrap JADA diecast. Wheels & tires are Pegasus and I custom made the dash to have the '60 Chevy instrument cluster. Decals are from Firebird Designs.

Front grill sets it off

I voted for the Street Fighter, but I love all of them. This and the Bad News 55 are probably tied for my favorite kit of all time. 

I'm a Ford guy, but I would love to have any version of this in 1:1.

Thanks guys, I didn't care for the grille or flat panel tail lights that came with the kit so I had to fix it to my liking lol.?
