this one is made from the Revell 60 Chev lowrider and a Revell kit called streetfighter, streetfighter was a customised sedan delivey but a poor quality kit that didnt come with standard parts as options the 60 lowrider was an excellent kit so i grafted the two together.

Monogram's Streetfighter/Quicksilver/Bad Actor/Streetfighter II (basically the same kit with different decals & box art) was one of Tom Daniel's more restrained designs.
He has a website here http://www.tomdaniel.com/ which shows all his other kit designs. Follow the TD Designs link.
My favourite is the Groovy Grader.
I've always thought that the Streetfighter body was great looking and full of potential and I must say dv8v8 that you've done a brilliant job with it.
How much work did it take to convert it from a flip front to a conventional bonnet?
And where did that side trim come from? Streetfighter had shaved trim & vents on the side.
This is a lot more than just putting the sedan delivery body onto the Lowrider chassis isn't it?

i used the body from the lowrider and grafted the roof of the streetfighter to it so most of the brightwork is from the lowrider kit as is all the the panel work below the belt line

That makes sense.
Still a lot of work though.
