Revell '57 Funny Car

Post by BlackSheep214 »

A vintage kit by Revell. I had fun with this one. Haven't done a funny car since my teen years. Only one knock on this one.... no tab to hold nose up from ground. I'll have to improvise something. Also no brace to hold body open. Not shown on instruction guide. Strange...
