The 1950 Oldsmobile 88 is widely considered to be the first factory hot rod produced. With its powerful overhead 303c.i. V-8 engine cranking out 135hp, and lightweight body design, it was a force to be reckoned with. It was very popular with racing enthusiasts at the time, running the quarter-mile in 18.9 seconds, unheard of in 1950. It wasn’t uncommon for these cars to be driven straight from the showroom to the race track!

 

For the Modeler: This new tool model from Revell can turn out to be a prize winner for your shelf but there are some things you’ll need to know BEFORE you put the decals on. This kit is molded in white, red, and clear plastic and contains 135 parts, including black rubber tires and metal axle pins and exhaust tips. Flash is practically non-existent. 

Covered in this Review: Basic kit construction and paint selection for the engine, interior and exterior; starter location; engine highlighting and detailing; detailing the undercarriage and brakes; modifying the frame for engine fit; straightening a warped part; repairing ejection pin marks; using metalizer paints for detail; engine bay appointments; business coupe considerations; body seam identification; glass handling; using foil for trim;  correct side mirror location; instruction errors; hood sink corrections; detailing the hood and trunk emblems;  are all fully examined in this 10 page, full-color Step-by-Step review.
