購入這部 HW 全因為其啞黑的車身顏色吸引,車模上色手工亦不俗,沒記錯的話其相信是本 Blog 內第一部介紹之啞黑色車模。
HW 有不少車模式為「虛構」之款式,但寫 blog 過程中到「Google」查一下,原來這 Chevy "Gasser' 實有其車。按 Google 資料:
// QUOTE A gasser is a type of hot rod originating on the dragstrips of the United States in the late 1950s and continued until the early 1970s.Gassers are based on production models from the 1930s to mid-1960s, which have been stripped of extraneous weight and jacked up using a "beam axle" to provide better weight distribution on acceleration (beam axles are also lighter than an independent front suspension), though a raised stock front suspension is common as well. Common weight reduction techniques include fiberglass body panels, stripped interiors and plexiglass windows (sometimes color tinted).
