The tubular sub-frame supports a multi-carbed 427 cubic inch "Ratmotor." The latest trends in drag racing are reflected in the lightweight steering, heavy-duty rear suspension, and light alloy Anson wheels.* Skill 2 Paint - Flat Black, Chevy Engine Red, Yellow, Silver, Steel, Aluminium, Mat Arctic White. * Monogram Models, Inc. My thoughts on this model... Everything was good except for the engine. It wouldn't fit right when I was trying to attach it and it's components onto the main body. Also, the exhaust headers wouldn't line up perfectly with the exhaust pipes, I had to fiddle with it just to make it look half decent. I picked this model up at Zellers for $7! That's half price for those of you who aren't farmiliar with Canadian prices.
