I don't recall ever seeing a steering shaft on a 1/25 kit. Are these aftermarket or are they making them better these days? (almost all my builds were AMT kits in the good old days.)

What are your favorite manufacturers/builds?

Very cool philo426!

Steve, the improvement in detail in some of the AMT and Revell-Monogram car kits is phenomenal! There's some beautifully detailed cars that even come with seperate chassis and accurate suspensions and engines. Even though the engine is a little on the small side, the ProShop '57 Chev is one of my favourites. It even has photoetched grille, emblems, and fin flashes! All out of the box!
