Dave Van Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) I like this little kit. It is beyond simple....but a few others have done modified builds....so I thought I would. Only major work was interior....and not that much really vs a full build...... I cut the floor out of the bucket and used sheet stock, rod stock and parts from a Revell IMSA Mustang kit. Also used the wheels and tires from said kit. Wing is from a Japanese wing kit. Kinda a '1970 SCCA Trans Am ' look combined with todays road racers. Wiper and fresh air vent from IMSA kit too. It will get some custom graphics later....for now I'm done. Edited August 3, 2014 by Dave Van Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragline Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Super tight Dave........ What color is that. I also like the touches. These cars are ripe for this treatment. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin T Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 That's cool. But you forgot to paint the rear side marker lights. It's a race car Harry, they don't need those anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
