55 chev pro sportsman
This one started life as a revell pro sportsman re-issue,but modified it to fit a cavalier/adr xb coupe body. Body colour is humbrol ferrari red. I added a front spoiler,modified the grill,widened the rear guards 5mm and added new door pannels and dash made from styrene sheet. Roll cage was lowered and modified with styrene rod. Bonnet scoop was modified to fit over the hemi engine from an old funny car kit. Rear wheel centres were cut off and centreline mags added to give extra deep dish. Worked on this one in phases so it spent over 2 years on the work bench,finally finished it late last year. Might be a fraction too much front camber though, but I like to think it's from a hard landing after getting some air from the way too high wheelie bars. Hope you like it and thanks for looking!
