1/16th scale resin funny car bodies

21 January 2013 - 10:17 AM

Would anyone know if anyone out there makes a Chevy Monza and a Mustang II body shell in resin to fit the 1/16th scale Revell Chassis?

 

Ive got a couple of ideas for future projects if i can find these bodies.


Mickey Thompson 1/16th Scale - Pontiac Grand AM F/C

I picked this kit cheap when a model shop was closing down and decided to build it as an "out of the box" build.

The only thing that was changed was that i stripped all of the factory chrome and repianted most of it with Alclad.

The main body was painted gloss black first, followed by a coat of fine metal flake followed several coats of candy apple red. Once dried 4 coats of clear lacquer was applied before the decals went on.

The chassis was painted with Tamiya Gold.

The kit in general was not to bad to build but the decals became a problem when trying to get them to wrap around front nose. This was even an issue using decal softner and decal setting solution.
