I'm looking into buying the Beverly Hillbillies truck model kit, and converting it into an early moonshine hauler. The car itself is supposed to be a chrysler or plymouth product-so I'm gonna look at paint schemes, chrome, general reference photos. But, my question is: has anyone else constructed this kit, and if so, was it good/bad, easy/hard, etc.? Thanks for any replies,

It's a 1921 OLDSMOBILE, shortened touring car body. I have the kit but havn't built it. The "custom" engine is supposed to be an Olds 455 or 425 or whatever they claim, but it's pretty much just a generic motor that -kinda- looks like a BBO. It looks like an ok kit with a bunch of cool parts (moonshine jugs, great looking set of Supremes), but I'm gonna use pretty much just the body and grill shell and build an all Olds modified.
