Pim Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Interesting idea as for my entry I am currently painting parts for the interior and chassis. For the interior I am planning a race/stripped out look with a six point roll cage,race seats and detachable steering wheel P.S cool idea for next year's run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrecker388 Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 (edited) An idea for next years run. Hmm... I better keep that twin pod-racer engine powered 53 Corvette idea I have off of the bench for a while... No updates on the GTO. I've been working on Pap's C10 model for his birthday Saturday pretty diligently. Edited August 19, 2014 by wrecker388 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pim Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Hey guys my gto is progressing nicely but I have a couple of quick questions are you allowed to have only 1front seat and also can I have a GPS screen in the car or do I have to make a 1\24 road directory?

JTalmage Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 I put the General back in the box for a while. Still havent got my parts from another member on here. I'll either be retiring it from this competition if I dont get the parts soon and looking for a new vehicle to take its place, or... I dont know yet.

knarf Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Hey guys my gto is progressing nicely but I have a couple of quick questions are you allowed to have only 1front seat and also can I have a GPS screen in the car or do I have to make a 1\24 road directory? i had gps in my entry last year, so i'd say you're good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunajammer Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 The rules only say the foundation subject must be 1979 or earlier, but it also welcomes modern upgrades so GPS is probably okay. I think only the drivers seat has to pass the freak chance there'd be a road inspection. It's understood it wouldn't be carrying passengers if there's no other seats.

TFchronos Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Opps hadn't realized I never put up a pic of the GTX done. Well I'll wait until the Dart and Formula are done I guess. Here's a little teaser though. And here's the starting point of my two main entries. '68 Dart: Plans are to build it up to look like one I have on Forza 4. I'm going to cut out the doors and trunk lid and do a few other light changes. Nothing wild or over the top like last year. And last but certainly not least a '77 Trans Am that will be converted over to a Formula which I want to build up as a replica to the one my Dad use to own.

Dominik Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 (edited) After a short responde with Nick about my entry (he is really busy), i am in. Here we go - an update of my work last month. My subject is a gluebomb 300SL from italerie. totally stripped. First thing, i sanded and sprayd a layer of filler. next round of sanding... ...and took an eye of the drivetrain. Out of my partsbox i took the drivetrain from a Ferrari Superamerica-or so, glued it and made some points to fix it on the frame: a test of fitting all together: Perfekt! Her is parts for ther own: Next was the trans bigger than the original, so the interieur doesn't go in: new tunnel made: done. Two things, that a old racecar must have (in my view and because i am a fan of it) are small rollbars... ...aaaand the exhaust like a Viper (love it): Thats for it now. No its up for the bodywork to get color on it. uh,...the interieur also needs some work Thanks fellas for watching.

W-409 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Finally I was able to do some more bodywork with my Dodge Charger Daytona. After the last set of pictures, I have been adding putty and sanding the front end many times. There was also a large sink mark on the trunk lid and on top of the rear fenders. I smoothed that out with putty and sanded it smooth. Then I thought it would be the time to throw some spray filler on. And to my surprise, I didn't screw up the paint this time.

maltsr Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Finally finished my '67 Corvette. Painted Tamiya bright red over pink primer, substituted a '90's era Corvette motor and sprinkled with some photoetch detail parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
