bobcrozier Posted December 30, 2008 Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) Gonna try for a quick build here. Inspired by Barry Price's brilliant multi-engined creations. i jammed together two AMT Garlits Wynns Chargers. Gonna be injected rather than blown. Tyres are from AMT's Street Freak Mustang. Gave them a good sanding down in the power drill. Sidewall profile a lot more realistic plus a smidgen of crown on the tyre. Scratchbuilt the injector intakes. Just in the process of forming the throttle linkages. Not gonna go too heavy on the detail, wanna make this a quick one. Made the chop here! Gonna have some gussets reinforcing these joints! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/bob...sislayup006.jpg Got plans for this front end which may include the Corvair engine from AMT's Parts Pack! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/bob...sislayup013.jpg Rear end, clutch can and motor plates fitted and frame painted semi-gloss black! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/bob...estbuild003.jpg Main engine components being pulled together. Scratchbuiding the injector manifolds http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/bob...estbuild008.jpg Bit of a mock up! http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v718/bob...estbuild009.jpg I'll keep ya posted Bob Edited December 30, 2008 by bobcrozier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
