"lutz's 57"

steelaiders

lots of modifications in order to even get it to sit at an acceptable ride height

"Great build"

biggronk777

Great kit, simple and straight forward. Parts trees are not over stuffed and very little flash. Car went together easy and no fit problems. I highly recommend this as a fun and stress free build.

"Good not great"

no.1silverback (Mesa Az)

Had to do a lot of trimming and sanding to get the hood to sit correctly and still flip as it should but not impossible. I like how much of the engine is visible with the hood flipped. Motivation to do some extra detail.
