I wanted to have this done for the HRW Spring Fun Run which I did. I cheated on the windows by using the glass from the die cast body. It makes a fine runner.

That looks so cool, I'm still working on mine, going to use a Revogram chassis under it. What did you use for an interior in yours? (BTW the Ferrari I got from you is waiting on the extra cashflow for the BRM wire wheels). I guess we all have multiple projects!

The chassis was a Carrera Superbird chassis that had to be cut and trimmed all over. The body had to be cut to its limits in the front to make room for the stock Carrera guide system. The interior was also from the Superbird that was trimmed way down also.

Hi Chris!

The caddy looks great!

I'll race you with my '56 Buick..... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Actually I think the '56 Buick body came from you which came from Derby City?

I think your caddy and my buick would look great racing against one another.....

Mine has a monogram stocker chassis under it.

Slid right under with minimal trimming.

That is a cool looking ride. Mine is setting here and waiting for me to figure out what the heck I am going to do :)

It ran great too.

I'd love one of those shells to make a matching team car for my Le Mans "Le Monstre"
