HauntFreaks Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I drag race 1/24 - 1/25 slot car and love using model and resin kits... this is one of my latest builds.... I started out with this snap-tite kit... I picked up some tube styrene to make the turbos and intake tubes... next I cut the hood to make way for the turbos, intake and exhaust... heres the parts mocked up on the body... now for the pro-mod wing... here is the exhaust mocked up... thru some paint on it...

HauntFreaks Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 thank you, ... to date I believe this is my best build... it looks fast, but has been geared to be slow... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixties Sam Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Wow! That's a beauty! I haven't looked at slot cars in years (make that decades!). I never saw any that well finished and detailed. Very nice! Did you scratch build the chassis? Excellent work! Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MitchP Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Wow! SIXX was turning me on to a blower/hat combo with that raked look all the blown pro-mods are going for, but this looks SOOOOO much like Annette "Pink" Summers' 'Vette that runs 6's at 240+ during the annual Orlando Fastest Street Car shootout it's crazy. I'm so new at this but unafraid to try anything. I've seen resin turbos for 1/25 scale and the cooler box looks pretty simple to construct. I wonder if this would also be an option for my Revell '55 Chevy Streetburner top sportsman build I'm eyeing for next spring. So many decisions...

1930fordpickup Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 The colors are fantastic . It would be hard to see to drive , but it is only a quarter of a mile at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skydime Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 very nice. i am amazed how much longer the car looks just by making a diagonal/horizontal cut along the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
