Mooneyzs Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Tyrone... You are just killing this build. That detail on the engine is just amazing. Love your work man. I have to agree with Joe here I would love to see what you could do with a 1/16th scale build. You need to jump in with the rest of us building 1/16th scale. I think you will love it once you try one. I am hooked for life on 1/16th scale although I will still build 1/24 1/25 as well as 1/43. Keep up the great work.

gasser59 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Although I never thought it was possible, your builds improve with each one you do. I can't fathom how you pull it off. Loving this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyrone Posted August 26, 2013 Author Share Posted August 26, 2013 A small update... I got the front end mounted I drilled 2 holes in both sides of the front end and ran a styrene rod across that catches on the front end mounts to hold up the front end... I also found a Slixx decal sheet that had some smaller Hoosier decals on it and used them... I think they look more accurate... Thanks for looking and comments welcome.....

DrKerry Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I can already hear it rompin away in the staging lanes!!!!!!!!! Very kool Tyrone!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted August 27, 2013 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Tyrone... your progress i just awesome bud. man I am loving this build. I like how you have used the styrene rod for the front body bracing that holds up the front end. This thing looks so sweet in primer and the detail to the chassis is just out of this world. You sure have these pro Mods down pat. I seriously think you could build them in your sleep . Keep up the great work and look forward to your next update.
