What a unique awesome looking car!!!!

I really like it!

My '56 Buick is like that also I scratch built.

It is one of those old multiple piece bodies you load up full of "Goop" to hold together.

That Buick is a great looking car! I will have to keep an eye out for one. I built the 55' and 56' Chrysler's, and the worst part was forming the curved windshield and rear glass.

My buick was a junk box body I acquired in a lot years ago. It started out as a 4 door body someone modified. Mine doesn't have window glass but hey it makes for a great dirt track car......There are a lot of cool old bodies but those multiple piece bodies are hard to put together and keep together when you start racing them. I find "Goop" or "Shoe Goo" a great thick glue to use to do the trick....

I remember that Valiant! Our Aussie guys (and gal), will tell you they raced the hell out of those rascals. What I don't remember is seeing those kits back then. I think I saw a Pyro kit of that car, but its hard to remember that far back.

Great classic, with a fine choice in paint color to compliment it.

Thanks for bringing it back for us who arrived to see it the first time around!!

Love that Valiant and I remember those multi-piece body kits from when I was young; always had a problem with getting the sides straight! Like the Buick, too; just FYI, Motor City Resin Casters did have a 1/32 57 Buick body.
