Things are looking good. Very impressed.

Wow just wow, very cool build.
-
Looks like a great start, I just started also but I have gone a little overboard in the past 30 days buying supplies and tools. I just cant help myself. Good luck with your build.

Sweet ride hope you respond soon with some updates.

Very nice build I'm watching closely.

Thanks but I sure have a lot to learn. Question? Anyone know where I can get a blower, pulleys and intake, maybe also some better valve covers for my Hemi. It's 1/24 scale out of the revell 71 Hemi Cuda kit. Motor is quite a bit bigger than 1/25 scale motors I have in my other kits.

This is kind of where I'm at now, mostly working on the chassis, I need to get some 060 and 080 rod to make the cage before I can move on. Lots of learning to do. P.S. if there are any tools or tricks you guys think I need to know about please speak up. Thanks for all your help. Bob

First attempt at cutting the front end off and cutting out the doors. I practiced on the 55 pro mod I robbed the chassis from, I guess i'll be building a tube chassis in future.

Thanks for the info and yes I am working on getting my work area setup. Will be getting a table top drill press and the dremel stand next week when my 25% off cupon is good. I haven't convinced the wife I should have a mill and lath yet. I got a lot more learning to do before I splurge on those.

Wife is a trooper though she got me this for Christmas. I also got a cordless dremel, but I bought that myself a couple weeks ago told her she could count it towards my Christmas but I needed it then rather than wait. I love my wife she sure puts up with a lot of my craziness.

Funny thing is now she complains I'm always in the back room, oh well at least I'm with in earshot. lol

I then started reading more of all your guys builds and knew that I needed more supplies so I found a Hobby store that carried evergreen and bought some tubing, rod, and sheet styrene just to have around incase I get stupid while putting this simple little model together. I also needed some more paints, sand paper, paint brushes, etc. etc. etc. While at the hobby store I found some larger wheels and tires for the back of the car and a mag for the Hemi along with an injector so I bought them just incase things grow as they usually do in my world. I have cut up the 55 pro mod chassis and the Cuda chassis and sort of melded them together also decided to make the frontend a strut instead of stock shock setup.

Well I couldn't build it the way it came so I had to buy a couple more models to steal parts. The 55 pro mod was a good start and then the 69 Hemi Dart just for good measure, also needed some paints. I guess I have to learn how to reduce the pics size I will continue once I get that figured out. Bob I moved from 1 tv tray to 3 also added some tools.
