I bought this on Ebay already built and it was pretty rough, i think it was built a long time ago, it was blue and had glue spots and was falling apart, so i soaked the body and frame in paint stripper for 2 days, then cleaned them off, the body came out good but the frame died. So i used 2 Polar lights frames and lengthened them, then put in a big Ford powerplant and wired it and plumbed it, then basecaoted the body with silver and shot it Transparent Red. Decals were a mix of Fred Cady and Slixx. First time i ever restored a kit, what a challenge!! But it was worth it.
