Ira Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 PARA-SCOOP!!! I made a Parascope Scoop from rectangular plastic tubing. Here is the first piece of tubing in place, each end cut on an angle... Here is the second piece in place. Both ends cut on an angle and one end is filled with plastic strip. Then I sanded down the edges, to round them off a bit. All Done!!! WATCH OUT!!! There's a Bug on the desk! What a difference between these 2 projects....working on both of them at the same time...

Ira Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Man you have some really cool concepts. I wasn't sure I was going to like the vette front end on the hauler but I'll be ###### if you didn't make that flow with everything else and that vette hood scoop just looks tough. Can't wait to see it all finished, keep it up. Thanks for the kind words Jason! Glad you like it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted August 11, 2012 Author Share Posted August 11, 2012 (edited) I've read the suggestions about making the front of the LSR car resemble a Corvette, and I can see it.. Squint just right and it could be transformed into something very similar to the factory Corvette SS sports Prototype from the late 50's. Thanks Jim! The shapes do look very similiar...
