Since then, this car has caught the attention of street rod builders because of the ease of modifications.\u00c2\u00a0 This Revell kit has incorporated a lot of good features such as a lowered suspension stance and a detailed modified flathead V8.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>For the modeler;<\/strong> this kit is very clean, has very little flashing on the trees, and individual parts fit together quite well.\u00c2\u00a0 It requires a little bit of model assembly knowledge because it needs tools to clean the parts.\u00c2\u00a0 Glue is also required for assembly.\u00c2\u00a0 The parts are unpainted.\u00c2\u00a0 If you would like a colorful model, you will need to paint all of the un-chromed pieces.\u00c2\u00a0 The instruction sheet does a good job suggesting colors for painting, or you can go on your own as I have done on this build. I chose a basic flat black with red interior for an old time hot rod look.\u00c2\u00a0 I also put white walls on the tires to bring a little more appeal to the hot rod look.\u00c2\u00a0 I really like this model.\u00c2\u00a0 Revell did a very good job with instructions and molding.\u00c2\u00a0 I found it a joy to paint and assemble. Construction sequence variations for the cross-member, front suspension, exterior paint, exterior trim parts; cautionary notes for the exhaust and wheel assemblies; paint and detailing of the chassis, interior, and exterior; and instruction errors are all fully examined in this Step-by-Step review.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">To see the full build and review &#8211; just select the PayPal link (<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">you can use a credit card there as well<\/span>) below for $2.99 USD.<\/p>\n<form action=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr\" method=\"post\"><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"cmd\" value=\"_s-xclick\" \/>\u00c2\u00a0<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"hosted_button_id\" value=\"CW7DCDKFY5B56\" \/>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 \u00c2\u00a0<input type=\"image\" name=\"submit\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/btn\/btn_buynowCC_LG.gif\" alt=\"PayPal - The safer, easier way to pay online!\" \/><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/form>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.paypalobjects.com\/en_US\/i\/scr\/pixel.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">Important!<\/span> &#8211; You <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">MUST<\/span> click on the &#8220;<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\">Return to Right on Replicas, LLC<\/span>&#8221; link after you&#8217;ve made your purchase to download your review!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: medium;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00c2\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Right On Replicas, LLC \u00c2\u00a92012 All rights reserved. <\/span><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">*All registered trademarks are the property of their respective brands.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\/\/ <![CDATA[\n  var _gaq = _gaq || [];\n  _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-7543364-1']);\n  _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);\n  (function() {\n    var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text\/javascript'; ga.async = true;\n    ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
