Jay Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 This was a quickie build..... Just did some superspeedway mods to the body. Taller rear spoiler w/braces, dual outlet exhaust, and I smoothed out the nose. The paint is Tamiya white with 2 part Omni clear just like the 1:1 car. The decals were JWTBM. Thanks for looking....

LVZ2881 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Nice Job!!!!! very clean, and you got a good stance, which is tricky with those taurus kits!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted February 24, 2009 Author Share Posted February 24, 2009 Nice Job!!!!! very clean, and you got a good stance, which is tricky with those taurus kits!! This is a 04/05 Profinish style Taurus kit. The 00/03 glue kit was the one that had the issues with the stance. All I did to get it to sit lower was cut off the front axle pins and glue the wheels directly to the spindles. The rear I omitted the metal axle and glued the wheels to the ends of the axle.

Excellent job!! It's hard to believe it was a "Quickie build". The way you did the wheels to get the right stance is the only way to really get it right.
