| This is a pro build 1958 Chevrolet Biscayne in 1/25th scale. I started with resin body from Bandit Resins. This guy cast some really nice resin bodies, check them out. You can find the link by pushing the kits and suppliers button on top of any page. I used an AMT 58 Chevy Impala kit as a donor for some of the parts. This car was built as a sleeper, or Plain Jane. I added a wired and plumbed 409ci. engine with dual quads. The Biscayne interior is done to simulate red and black vinyl leatherette with cloth. I scratch built the correct Biscayne steering wheel. It is completely foiled and detailed, and features a radio delete plate in the dash. The 409 is mated to a Muncie 4spd. It has a very detailed chassis, with blackwall tires and dog dish hubcaps. The exterior is totally detailed, foiled and painted in the factory color of Rio Red. I added the vintage 1958 Minnesota license plates also. This is the type of cars we built in high school back in the 60's A plain wrapper with lots of power. |
