"Lots of Trimming"

Chris R. (Jacksonville, Ar)

Don't know if it was the kit I have or molding on the car. I had to do a lot of trimming/shaving where the plastic meet/overlapped on the body. The tail light did not fit into the sockets and the engine did not fit in the engine bay after you installed the wheel rod for the front tire. Overall a bad model kit (or least the kit I bought)

"Great Classic Kit"

sparkmaster56

I built this kit as a kid. It does take a little clean up and test fitting to make things right. The kit has allot of spare parts if your a kit basher. For its age it stood up well. The interior detail is week and requires a bit of patients to get it looking good. For the intermediate modeler it's an awesome representation of the real car. For the purist some of the body detail isn't correct. All in all I still love this kit.

I love this kit this kit is a lot of fun to build I love old cars so this is great for my collection this kit has a lot of cool ways you can customize it I want to add another one to my stash as this one looks so good PROS: cheap, fun to build, looks good, highly detailed, features a nice engine CONS: minor flash if you are thinking of picking up this kit then get it, it is a great kit for any old car collector and you will have many ways you can build this if I was going to give it a rating I would give it 10 out of 10 stars I am using this kit for a diorama I have about the first ever car show I went to my mom took a lot of pictures of the cars there so I build cars based on what was at the show and the beginning of my car addiction!

"Not a Good One"

clgray70

Poor fit, lots of cutting and adjusting, and a bit simple. This kit is a challenge, but not in piece count or complexity. The instructions are not very clear, the parts have a lot of flash and do not fit well. There are a lot of options; street, drag, etc, but they are tough to get exited about when some of the options just do not work due to poor molding.
