I'll go ahead and show one last remaining build from my teenage years. I think I got this kit as a Christmas present back in the early 80's. This, along with 3 others are all that escaped my old room back home after I rescued them 2 years ago. Here's what the kit originally looked like:
and this is where it's at as of now. BTW....the reason for me showing you all of these "old dogs" is because I plan on doing something with each one. This one might be a total redo. lol
and yes..................I got rid of that stupid looking wing in the back. Jeeez 4fvgdaq_th

That hood scoop looks better on the build than the box, the box pic makes it look massive lol

I like the way it looks now, but I understand you wanting to redo it. Does it have an engine?

I have this kit, picked it up at a swap meet last year. I wasn't planning on going with the original 80's theme icon_bored_zpscodtnzo5 but I liked the tubbed chassis and big rears. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it Popcorn%20and%20drink%20emoticon_zpsnbkzs8ys
