revell chevy ssr ,just got it
i just picked this up today at my lhs, just thought i whould let everyone know how it was. it is the same stup as the itr and civics with the screwon chassis, the detial is very nice, i hope all new revell kits are like this one, looks like they learned from how good the itr and civic where and decided to stick with that. if anyone wants some crappy pics i will try to get some.

it is actually the same engine as the one that comes with the 99 silvorado exept for the engine cover. do you guys have any ideas on what colors i should paint it, or maby evan some mods, like a cold air intake and new rims, the ones in the kit suck, also the rear suspention is a metal rod that goes though the axel after you put it together, so some ashomia rims are no problem.
Robert. pictures to come soon. |

Re: revell chevy ssr ,just got it
I kinda like the Yellow/Blue color
All Yellow except the hood, top and all over the line you see on the side On the picture it look like a dark metalic blue (telefonica blue ?)

yea i know 16 is high i ahd to give up rims for my low rider project to get it. there was also the new zo6 there but i did not pick it up as it looks just like the other zo6. i am waiting for the escalade. also i thought this ssr wasent spoused to come out till later in the year. also my lhs has like 15 of these so if anyone wants one you can send me the 16 for the kit 7 for shipping and 5 for gas cuz i have to drive 40 miles to my lhs. i know that all those numbers sound like alot but if you cant get this kit in your area its well worth it. thanks.

Re: revell chevy ssr ,just got it
Rob....I might just go pick it up, and set it aside for me to finish later down the line. My hobby shop is a good bit of a drive from here, but it's worth it.
Thanks again for the information, and the picks. Had you planned a color for it yet?
