Konstant Hot Midget!
ok first I'm not trying to be a jerk by post a Monogram Hot Shot Midget here, but I just thought this was the best please to post it.
I built this car about 5 years ago, and yes this is a real kit not a repo, I have been able to collect a number of these kits unbuilt still in the wrapper, some people may say I'm crazy for building it, but I see it this way, why have something if you can't enjoy it. I have always wanted to build one of these kits since I was a kid, my dad built 3 of these back in the day and raced them as slot cars, I still have them too.
Anyway I hope you enjoy the pictures, and that I have made anyone mad by posting it here, enjoy!

I like it !! Very well done sir.
I figure its just a box of plastic if its not built. I would save the box though.
