Looks good to me. What were the "fit issues", cos I can't see them myself. Guessing it was the engine as it's now a curbside. The side stance looks killer, which surprised me, as I'm not usually a fan of the higher rearend (except maybe on hotrods). I think that the colour and wheels really suit this car.

This really looks good.
Colour is great.

I'm fiddling with one ATM. Probably going to be Blue with a black roof.

Thanks fellas... Rosco's monaco Icon_smile

ChevyFan,I'm not sure if the fit problems are common with this kit or i just got a bad one.
Here are the issues I had..
Window glass,interior tub to body,chassis to body,rear bumper to body,& hood was warped.

The rear is stock height,i lowered the front about 1/4 inch.

Zenrat...Look forward to seeing your take on this machine,please post when ya can.
Even though i had issues with this kit,i will probably build a couple more,they do have a good curbside appeal.


Allen...The color is,dupli-color driftwood metallic.

I'm working on trim for the back of a vinyl top just now but i'll be checking fits before I go much further. Thanks for the tips.

I like this because its a 4 door.

That's pretty cool, looks to me like either a hand me down from the dudes parents or bought cheap at a police auction by a High school kid, he's chopped the front springs - bought some wheels from the car guy up the street and is now ready to cruze with his buddies up and down main street!

Nice work Rosco's monaco 12650
