Default 55 Chevy Gasser Badman

OK, who still has there original models from 60’s? I managed to save this one for 50 plus years or so while I was teen. Over the years few things fell off or broke off like the wheelie bars, But I was able to repair it after every move. I think this was Monogram original release around 1968 or 69? Had to be close to 70, cause the 396 came out in 65? The year I put it together. I owed 1 55, two 56’s, and one 57 chevy’s. Back in late 60s and 70’s.

My models did not make it here, but my original RAT FINK Tee shirt did.

I feel you’re pain, I also had 32 Ford dragster called orange crate. But, my younger cousin sent it down the stairs with about 5 others. Luckily he hadn’t got to the Badman.

None of my built kits made it through my last move, but I do have some early 70's JoHan kits to build when things slow down a little. Never owned a Tri-Five but had many friends that did including a gorgeous 57 Belair that they rolled playing chicken with another car back in the day, and those were some dumb days...
