M W Elky Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I made this with the first release of the 55 Chevy sedan kit that included all the gasser parts from the nomad kit. The rear wheels were sourced from the amt 33 Willy’s kit , and the front wheels are from the old amt ertl 1970 Camaro. The white wall front tires are amt items from the parts box I got the decals from southern Motorsport hobbies. The paint is good old testors gold enamel topped with wet look clear . I made the headers from solder and aluminum tubing. Until next time thanks for looking, mike 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I like to build a couple of them every year around the end of February and early march Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks I fully agree the wheel well cut out are a little rough unpolished rear mags , and the nose high stance all lend to that look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
