Hawk312 Posted May 6, 2015 Author Share Posted May 6, 2015 Thanks guys! What did you make the extended rear spoiler out of? Been driving me nuts seems all of these cars have them. The ones I've tried to make are either too thick, too clunky. Does anyone have proper dimensions? Tricks? Thanks I just used Evergreen styrene strip, cut to the width of the lower portion of the spoiler, and rounded of by sanding. Hope this helps!

Force Posted May 9, 2015 Share Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Very nice build. Where did you get the front rims, I have been looking all over for a set of correct looking Cragar Super Trick's and these are the best looking I have seen so far.

Hawk312 Posted May 11, 2015 Author Share Posted May 11, 2015 Very nice build.

Someone here tipped me off to these. They, both fronts and backs, are in this kit and are much, much better than the generic die cast rims that are in the Snow kit: If I remember correctly, I used the kits front tires, and the slicks are from a newer (mid 90`s) Revell funny car. The rear slicks are pretty well modified though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes the old Revell FC rims are terrible, they were most likely meant to be either Centerline's Auto Drag or Cragar's Super Trick, wich was very common rims on drag cars back then, but they missed the target by about a mile or two when they tooled them up because they don't look even close to either of them.

IJ001 Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Yes I know I'm VERY late to this particular party, but I've 'googling' builds of this kit as I've found one for sale here in 'Middle Earth' and I'm trying to decide between this and the 'Revellution Demon'... Really like the whole 'feel' of this build and the paintwork is simply superb. This build has almost made-up my mind for me !! Ian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truck parts Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Great looking build Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10thumbs Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 Yes, its been awhile, but still a very nice build, compliments.@Ian, I have several Revell kits of this era/genre, and I as far as I can tell there are hardly any changes noticeable. Some motors have a better looking injection, otherwise they are all the same, just different bodies. Even the frame parts and such are interchangeable.This series though, has a very nice kit, the Tom McEwen Funny Car. I won't bash this kit or rob it for parts like the others, its nice. The overall perspective and attention to kit detail is great, my opinion. Its a so called level 3 kit too, it is somewhat different than the rest.Just some info from what I've observed.
