Recommended Posts

Well i almost finished my gasser but well a fly landed in my paint and so i had to strip it. Now it gave me some time to work on the truck. Revell 41 chevy truck new issue, All its gona have is a hopped up motor and be nicely painted. It will have a tow boom just in case one car breaks down(######'n make sure it runs good) it could take the motor out and fix it. Crapn be scared. Whatcha think of it. Any ideas?

Oh crapn it will have a push bar so just in case u break donw and my gassers on the trailer i can push ya to your destination :D

What's the problem with the injector marks Florian? I'd say if they aint in the way of yer glass or anything don't mess with them, but if they gotta go, hmmmmmm.......maybe very carefully slide a Xacto knife thru the door windows and slice just a little off at a time, or if they aint stickin down too much, maybe put a small piece of sandpaper on the end of a dowel, say 1/2" diameter, or something similar and carefully sand em off.

That'd make a good pic - yer 41 pushin my 51 and pullin yours :D specially when yer 41 hits my oil slick and starts spinnin and smokin :D

hahahaha. Well lets see what i can do about my injector marks. If i find somethin i will let u know about it. Maybe i will do a tech on it. Let me see what i can do. Thanks for your input and yes that would make a sick pic. You know what would be even funnyer. Okay my truck pushing your ratline (ratty fleetline) pullin my gasser on the trailer and attached to the trailer is your gasser. That would be funny :D:D:lol: Glad you like the truck.

Nice looking truck, Inline power, and a low stance. I'm waiting for my 50 Ford pick-up to get here, to start my tow rig. I got the trailer from the AMT 76 Caprice.
Hey Robert, you say you gotta trailer from the 76 Caprice. Is it set up to pull a race car? Coz I'm thinkin mebbe hookin my trailer with my gasser (and trophy) on it to the 66Chevelle wagon runnin the 396. I am hopin to get a cool truck, more period correct, sometime down the road. Just wonderin.....I spose you could do that in 1:1.

The trailer is pretty basic. it is a single axle trailer, with two ramps, it has a nice hitch assembly. I have seen the trailer in earlier kits like the MPC Mako Shark 2 show car.

I don't suppose you went to the Drag Racing section to look at my 56 Ford Victoria gasser? If you like Traditional Rods and Kustoms (not Rat Rods) PM me and I can point you to a great forum site, dedicated to that style of build.
