1951 Henry J Gasser Completed & USPS Delivery

I finally got the Revell 1951 Henry J Gasser completed. I knew it was a poor fitting kit going into it and it proved itself to be. Had fun with the build but the fitment issues were many.

Looks great 👍🏼 can't wait to build one .now you should build the 1965 chevy nova gasser kit 👌 😍

[@olezippi]

Thanks Tim. Yup. I have one on order at the local Hobby Shop. I'll check on it this Friday.

[@johnmanley7859]

I got the front end to fit better by bending the radiator support. The doors fit ok but sag when open and is a little fiddley to get back. The newer Revell kits go together better . I noticed I had to soak decals for a long time and had no problem. I bent the front window and there was plenty of window material for the vent windows. Looks good nice build.

[@olezippi]

Thanks man. I appreciate the feedback.

[@samuelvasquez8170]

[@garyslentzii2796]

Thanks for the sub my friend. The Henry looks fantastic, now I know how that 29 engine looks built up and I can put it in a better project, it's OK but I got it for the parts.

[@olezippi]

You bet man. Thank you as well. That blown 29 engine is nice.

[@Stupidfastracing]

[@olezippi]

Haha....Yeah Gary, I believe I did. Thanks for all the comments.

[@oldrustycars]

I built this kit in the 60s and 70s several time, when it cost $2.25 at the drug store. Probably bought it at least once just to get parts out of it. I seem to recall what they decided were wheelie bars were leaf springs with no wheels.

[@olezippi]

Yup, I didn't care for their so called "Wheelie Bars" so I used so a nice set.

[@thatcarguy13]

looks good tho Zippi man even when we know know these kits are difficult to work with, Cheers...

[@olezippi]

Yes sir. It was a difficult one.

[@ruanecrummett9261]
