Hi All,

This is my 1/25th scale MPC '36 Wild One Chevy Modified. I replaced the kit wheels with PPP Wide 5 rims and Firestone asphalt tires. I also added a PPP window net and Parts By Park prewired distributor. A Facebook modeling friend hooked me up with a set of 3D-printed Buick finned brake drums with backing plates that were designed to work with the PPP wheels. The paint is all Tamiya spray lacquer which was decanted and applied with an airbrush. The graphics are a hodge podge of both kit and spare decals from the decal stash.

Thanks for looking.

Beautiful build, excellent job on the detailing. Its nice to see one built up, i love dirt cars of this era, but i always wondered about the quality of the kit. It looks like this one is very well made.
 
Thank you! This was my first attempt at these modified kits and enjoyed it. Learned some things for next one. Plus I would like to add more detailing, especially on the engine and the interior. Thanks again!
