Hotrod28 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Hi just starting work on a new Drag Car but first i have to build the body and that is no easy task as you cant find much of it around . So i started with a Remote Controll body i bought at Kmart (had to buy the whole thing) and proceded to cut it up , well to start with it was suposed to be a 1/16 but more like a 1/20 or what but i dont know but here we go . Its not preety so far but we will get there . I am wanting to build a car campained by George Lazcanos (Lazcanos Racing) you can see photos on the Web it is an awsome machine . Well i will do my best as i have already done a 1/25 scale body of a 350Z , its just bigger hay see ya . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotrod28 Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 Hi thanks for the kind words and i will do my best to turn it into a killer 350Z . A few more photos after chopping the roof and adding some plastic in front of the windscrean and a bit more sanding to ready it for Bondo. In Australia we call it BOG . Thanks for all the replies and i will do my best to turn it into a killer 350Z . The hardest part will be building the Nissan V6 all the rest of the running gear is close to P/M . If its okay i thought i would put in 1 or 2 photos of a 29 Ford Woody I built about 10 years ago cause i love A Model Fords . I own a 29 Roadster P/UP Street Rod thanks Darryl. When i do this type of work i use a lot of ZAP ( zap a gap ) glue with Bicarb Soda it works quick and hard as a rock and bondo stickes to it good too see ya.

iBorg Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 SWEEEEEEEETTTTT!!!! I think I'm good at body work but wouldn't have the ability to pull this off. I doubt if 99% of the other model builders could either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hotrod28 Posted March 24, 2013 Author Share Posted March 24, 2013 Hi guys just a couple of photos for a question I would like to ask about is do you think the rear wing on the back is the style for this car or should i go to a different style like a bigger Pro Mod . The wing is in its early stages would look better cleaned up . I would appreciate your feedback thanks Darryl. I did not realise till i was posting these photos that the front of the car was not long enough in the front section between the wheelarches . I thought their was something wrong as it did not look right in proportion to the rest of the body . You can see the difference in this photo of my other car I did the body on a 1/25 350 Z . P.S. This has been on the back bench for some time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
