First off, apologies for the dodgy photos - I think the camera was having problems with all the reflected light! Secondly, this is a rarity for me in that it no longer exists because I was persuaded to pull the body off for someone who needed it and it now sports a Fiat body instead. I think these photos must be at least twenty years old. So, what we have is the main body from Revell's Orange Crate with (if I remember correctly) some scratchbuilt front panels and a parts box grille (with a rather ropey illustration but it was the best I could do at the time!). Pretty much everything else is AMT Parts Pack stuff: the frame, motor, suspension, wheels etc. All complete in shiny chrome!

Thanks Don, weirdly I've just realised that I don't have any photos of the Fiat - perhaps I should correct that before it suffers the same fate!

Now that is cool! I love the body color! If it was a real vehicle it would have been a pain in the arse for the driver to see over the engine through that tiny windshield!!! Brilliant work!!!

Yes, great color combo. The pictures are kinda cool, give it sort of a surreal look.

Thanks guys! Now that is cool! I love the body color! If it was a real vehicle it would have been a pain in the arse for the driver to see over the engine through that tiny windshield!!! Brilliant work!!! Todd I'd always assumed the driver would just close their eyes, stamp the loud pedal and hang on!
