Bought the Double dragster kit in the tin a couple of years and used it primarly to supplement my parts box. I needed something different to build between my other projects and found I had enough of the original kit to build this. My inspiration for this kit was the Dragmaster "Two Thing" at the NHRA museum and Moon Eyes dragster. Pretty much box stock with a few extra details...Enjoy and thanks for looking.

That is really great! It looks so mice in yellow, and I like your change in rear wheels and the scoop for the blowers.

Thanks for the comments. Color is Tamiya Yellow with a single coat of Duplicolor clear. I changed the rear wheels because I don't care for the chrome dish wheels provided with the kit. The Dragmaster "Two Thing" provided the idea of the scoop. It's the top part of a Competition Resins F1 scoop shaved down to size and painted with Krylon chrome.
