Webb Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Built this one a few years ago from an SHMR kit. Added all the wiring, dual coils, gauge bodies and safety harnesses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Webb Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Thanks Ray. The basic kit isn't that tough but routing the wiring through the "cage" was a little interesting.Appreciate it Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Cranky Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 A beauty indeed, and for some reason it reminds me of Speed Racer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badluck 13 Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 A beauty indeed, and for some reason it reminds me of Speed Racer. Yeah Doc it sure does,looks like "Snake Oiler's" car....sorry I grew up on that show......Chris,what a beautiful job and detail on such a small scale,very impressive!!!

Webb Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 Thanks Doc and Mike. I'm afraid I was a little too old for Speed Racer when it was popular so I don't get the reference to "Snake Oiler's car but I hope it was cool! I've always been a big fan of Birdcages but there aren't many kits out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
