here's the second 40 for our club build, an injected Hemi gasser.



I modified the 40 chassis for the Willys front axle, hemi and headers and 32 rear axle



I sanded the doors and added a roll and tuck pattern, glued the front end for a 1 piece.



I recessed the firewall and put in a trans tunnel from an S-10.



the bed is from the AMT Willys.




chassis ready, Willys wheels, resin tires



Willys engine with injection, parts box manifold, tubing injector stacks.



It's a tight fit.

Thanks Guys,

I'm really partial to older drag cars so I knew I had to build this one.

I love it, great job on all the modifications, and that injected engine and the beautiful yellow paint make it all that much better.

[Dave Darby]

Coolness! Where did you source the resin tires from?

[flatbedfrankie]

Beautiful color! If it wasnt sitting on your workbench I would swear that it was REAL!

Thanks, guys, the tires are copies of parts box pieces. If I only have a couple of a given tire, I make resin copies of them, then I don't have to rob expensive kits for tires.
