Chris in Berwyn Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 OK, so not quite the same caliber as the other engines posted, but these two are on my workbench now. Both are Revell 1/25 hemis. One is in the Johan Mickey Thompson Pinto - it ran with a Chrysler engine its second year, and the other is going in a stretched Johan chassis that will go under a Revell Charger body. I am in the midst of replicating Phil Castronovo's 1971 NHRA World Final winning car. The second engine will go in the replica I am building of this....

AZ Boy Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Very cool, Chris! Are the decals for the Castronovo Charger available, or are you going to make them yourself? That's one I've always wanted to do too. In the meantime, this is the engine I'm doing for my 1/16th Radici & Wise Vega. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp1839 Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 wow! nice builds guys. very clean and very nicely detailed. excellent work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in Berwyn Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Are the decals for the Castronovo Charger available, or are you going to make them yourself? The decals are not available, but I have the artwork done. It looks like someone is going to produce them. I can let you know about that - give me about two more weeks. Looking forward to seeing your R&W engine when I get hom - photos are blocke at work for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
