‘55 Jukebox Ford 1:25 Scale Revell Model Kit #85-4036 Review
Â
Review and Photos by Tony Gibson 
This Dick Brown 55 Ford Crown Victoria Pro Modified was driven by Norm Wizner. It runs a big Boss 429 and the car runs in a 50s & 60s classic modified class. This class allows modern Pro Stock chassis with very creative, old school looks. The Jukebox runs 7.27 seconds, reaching speeds of 196mph. This class is fun for the fans, allowing old, heavy cars to race competitively with a light, fiberglass or carbon fiber replica body.
For the Modeler: This is the ‘55 Jukebox Ford 1:25 Scale Revell Model Kit #85-4036. This is one of Revell’s Motor Sports Series kits molded in 1/25 scale. There are 115 pieces molded in white, chrome and clear. It comes with no brand two-piece rear drag and front runner drag tires. Outstanding waterslide decals are included which are crisp and colorful. The model body is very light weight and almost a milky color. It’s clear of die marks and flashing. The rest of the parts are also very crisp and very clean. The chrome is bright and smooth. The clear parts are sharp and polished. There wasn’t any release agent left on the parts or body, so there was no oily residue. The direction sheet offers clear building locations for parts and color codes. The completed model measures 8.25†in length. Keep the glue off the windshield – Tony
