Our take on the Skill 2 Model Kit 1957 Chevrolet Gasser Flip Nose "Spirit of 57" 1/25 Scale Model

This is MPC's 1/25 scale plastic model kit of a 1957 Chevrolet gasser, the "Spirit of 57," with a flip-up one-piece front end that exposes the whole engine bay. It is a Skill 2 kit, so it suits builders who have already finished a snap-together or simple glue kit and are ready for paint, cement and decals. The kit leans hard into drag-racing detail: a super-detailed gasser chassis, traction bars, a big-block Chevy V-8 with air scoop and headers, slotted racing wheels, wide slicks and a custom racing interior with stylized bucket seats. Against simpler 1957 Chevy kits it offers more parts and a more dramatic flip-nose body, but it needs paint and cement and rewards patience over speed.

Questions and answers

What skill level is this kit?
It is an MPC Skill 2 kit. That means glue and paint, with more parts and steps than a beginner snap-together kit.
What is included in the box?
The kit includes the flip-nose 1957 Chevy body, a detailed gasser chassis, a Chevy V-8 with air scoop and headers, racing wheels and tires, a custom interior, chrome-plated small parts and a decal sheet. Paint and cement are not included.
Does the front end really flip up?
Yes. The body has a one-piece flip-up front end that opens to show the full engine. The hinge and fit need careful assembly.
What paint and glue do I need?
You need model cement and paint for the white-molded parts, plus paint for the interior and engine details. Check the instructions for the suggested colors.
How does it compare with a stock 1957 Chevy kit?
This is a gasser, not a stock car. It has a raised racing stance, traction bars, slicks, a racing interior and the flip nose, so it builds into a drag car rather than a showroom Chevy.
What scale is it?
It is 1/25 scale, the same size as most MPC and AMT car kits, so it sits well next to other 1/25 builds.
Where is the Skill 2 Model Kit 1957 Chevrolet Gasser Flip Nose "Spirit of 57" 1/25 Scale Model cheapest?
At www.diecastmodelswholesale.com, for $30.49, as of our latest check.
