Description

Carefully read through the instructions and check off each step as you go along. Take your time and use a quality glue with a precision applicator. This makes for an incredible show piece to add to your collection! What a great design from Tom Daniel. It is from the original Monogram tooling issued in 1969-70. Skill level 3 ages 14 and up.

This kit also comes with a sturdy corrugated bottom to give this jammed packed box more protection.
King Chopper II Three-Wheel Show Trike: Bikes are big, and this Tom Daniel design is the biggest and wildest ever seen! Daniel built the King Chopper around a cut down Harley-Davidson 74 because of its big displacement, big horsepower, and big torque. Using a neat, low-slung frame to hang the engine, he used two small-diameter wide Indy ovals on the rear with a chain drive to harness all that power. Front spoked wheel with full-width racing drums is set at an extreme rake. The pleated saddle seat with high-back is a work of art and topped with a 'sissy bar' that serves as a perch for Tom's pet mean and ugly California Condor. Big 1/8 scale model is over 15 inches long and nearly 13 inches tall. It's a BIG-BIG model that's bound to be a BIG-BIG hit with the biker crowd. A powerful package in far out psychedelic colors will move this kit with all the speed of the real King Chopper!
