No pics, but you are thinking right. The rear wheel opening on a 55 Chev is ugly and does not suggest "Hot Rod". The 2 most important things you can do to get the drag car look is take off the front bumper, and radius the rear wheel openings.
this isn't a real car, it's the box art from the 1964 issue Revell 55 Chevy model. I have the full thing as the wallpaper on my computer...it's a *****in painting.
Rick..........don't have a rear wheel shot of my 55 but here's a decent shot of my mill which has the g*** flavour! See ya in Detroit at Autoramma!
I traded cuz it needed to be faster and faster still...I got this truck and a newer whizzer . I still have the chunks of fender CONDER cut out if ya need a pattern.
