Bad Man 55 Chevy

This is one of the last reissues of this monogram kit. Built box stock, a reasonable kit. Thays me in the top hat talking to the boys. I built this a couple of years ago but only just photographed it. Hope you like it.

Mmmmmm. Yellow.



I just read a review that described this as an awfull kit with really poor parts fit. You wouldn't think that to look at what you've done.

COOL! i remember building this kit when i was a teenager, it had clear glass in it then, tuff chevy!!

Thanks Fred. This kit has been around the block a couple of times and it shows in the overall condition of the mouldings and mould lines. It is a relatively simple kit not to todays standard. I found it a fun challenging kit, maybe not for everyone. The diecast version is basically identical and you get a figure of mr daniels in his hey day. Cheers

It was a horror indeed. I had it in the 80's. I gave the engine to a fellow I had just met when I found out he was interested in doing mad max style cars too. It ended up in the rear end of a VW combi van. The rest of the kit... well I really don't remember what happened to it. I hated yellow plastic for a while after it though!

i've got an issue of this kit, and he's right it's a pig to get parts fitting right, it's on my "to do list", but nice work getting this kit built

Cool Chevy
