 The Monogram Tom Daniel Badman 1955 Chevy dragster is a “gasser†style kit and is bursting with nostalgia. In their heyday, the “gasser†style dragsters ruled the quarter mile not just on looks, but on performance as well. The “Bad-Man†1955 Chevy was no different with its straight front axle, hefty ladder bar-enhanced rear suspension and full-on race motor replete with a roots style blower.
Despite the kit’s few shortcomings, this re-release of the old Monogram tool has a genuine likeability that most modelers of our age group not only understand but appreciate. Could it be that many of us simply enjoy the memories we hold dear from kits like this that were part of our childhood? I think so.
For the Modeler: This is a skill level 2 kit with 74 parts total, but beginners shouldn’t have too much trouble assembling this one. Molded in yellow plastic with a single chrome tree, transparent red “glass†and vinyl tires, the limited number of parts makes for a quick build and one you don’t have to paint the body to be able to recreate the box art. This is a pretty basic kit that looks great right out of the box but there are a few tings that should be considered when making this model. Managing the fit of the header assemblies; the ladder bar attachment; and the incorrect engine type are all fully examined in this Step-by-Step review.
