I built this for a Chevy contest on another site. I wanted to build something a little different, and I thought about building a racer that you would see in some of those 60's movies like "Munster go home" or the "Love Bug" . I removed the windsheild frame, sanded off most of the trim , wipers and widened the wheel arches. then added the custom front end and headrest. The hood scoop, headers,steering wheel and some other bits are from the parts bin. The tires are from some old Nascar kit. I made the fire extinguisher . The paint is Testors Custom Lacquer gold over white. The decals are from the old Monogram Firebolt kit ,they seemed to have been made for this kit, and amazingly they were still good after all these years. I didn't win the contest, but I had a lot of fun building it.
