"'55 Ford F100"
MrBuick
This is another good kit from Revell/Monogram. Parts all fit well, but some did require a bit of trimming, though not excessive. There are a few very minor things I didn't care for with this model kit. It's a little more modern street rod than I would have preferred, my main complaint being the engine...it's a 5.0 Cobra Fuel Injected V8...I would have much preferred a period correct flathead, and I'll probably swap one in sometime in the future. I also don't care for the tail light assembly. I mounted the tag bracket in a more period-correct and in my opinion better looking way than intended, so the Ford lettering is upside down (extremely minor complaint, and if I cared that much I'd just trim it off). Then there's the interior. The quality is fine, but the installation is tricky if you try to follow the instructions, which are extremely poor when it comes to the interior. I found the easiest thing to do was to ignore the guide and install the glass first, then the dash and the side panels at the same time. It's easier to see how/where the side panels will fit that way, and it's important you get them right, because they're what helps hold the cab to the body. In the end there are a few changes that I'd make to this kit, but those complaints are very, very minor and overall I'm pleased with this kit.

"1955 F-100 Street Rod"

A very basic kit which is easy to assemble. There are a ton of ways you can customize this kit. The price of the kit makes it a perfect choice to experiment with. The engine and exhaust included in the kit are minimal, but still offer sufficient detail and easy customization. This kit is definitely worth the money and I will pick up a couple more for future customization.

 
"Fun Kit"

This is a lot of fun. Instructions are spot on and easy to follow. Flash is very light, just a sanding took care of it. Detail was excellent. Parts fit was good my only complaint was the ride height, it just looked off to me, so I lowered the stance and that cleared up that issue with me. I painted it black on the fenders with a red body and bed. I would recommend this kit to all builders.

 
"This kit is super nice"

You want to get a lot for your money? Get this (or a couple) of this kit! It builds up great. Simple construction and tons of options. Plus, at this price, you won't feel intimated to go out on a limb and customize it to look the way you want. I went with a real wood and stainless steel liner for the bed. The engine is kind of limited on how you can trick it out, but the room in the engine bay would give you space to put a jet engine in there! Plus, and I mean this, it would be an excellent first kit for anyone. The only downside was the decals. The register is wonderful, but not printed to fit the curves of the front hood especially. I drowned the hood decals in Microsol, but they still had a problem settling. Otherwise, thumbs up big time.
