It's not a kit. It's just a resin body I have cast for slot cars

I've lowered the valance on both cars, made the speedway skirts, front, rear and speedway windows, decals are from Powerslide and JNJ, inner windshield bracing was added, along with photoetch hood pins. Tamiya gold and some urethane white topped with urethane clear

Just a mock up here. Still have all the interior stuff to do. This is a mash up of Powerslide and JNJ decals. Knocked the shine off the tires. Paint is Tamiya Gold and white topped with 2k clear. Front, rear and passenger window are made from .05 Evergreen clear sheet

I used Solvaset and Micro Set, sharp hobby knife and a blow dryer

Nice work

The engine compartment is for the McLaren F1 GT and wont be seen. They other piece is for the Fujimi Porsche GT3.

Thank you all

It's the lighting in regards to the stripes. I appreciate the insight though

Alpha Models resin kit. Everything is resin. Nice kit to build with minimal clean up. Panted with Splash Paints Celeste with a special mix of Tamiya Acrylics for the interior and topped of with 2k clear

Try it now

Revell 69 Yenko Nova with a host of extras. MCG detail set, Detail Master hoses, clamps, detail wire, Hurst shifter, MCG wipers. Topped with LeMans Blue and 2k clear

Thank you all

Awesome. Have you looked on Shapeways for parts?

Powerslide decals doubled up with MCW paint over an original Monogram kit. 2k clear. Made the front windshield out of .05 Evergreen clear sheet, added inner window bracing and roll bar padding along with overflow tube

I grew up in Reading, PA. We did this in the alleys as kids using airplane tires, slot car tires and shotgun wads. We ran 6oz and 8oz. Guys I know still race. Its ramp racing now because of the condition of the city. It's fun. Best part is building your stuff and winning with it.

Thank you sir

Here's just an example of a car I'm looking to have done. Looking for quality. Not necessarily Slixx screen print but quality Alps or laser print. Thank you.

As a sprint car fan I gotta say, nice work. That is a beautiful build fight there.

Chevy cavalier possibly the stratus. Most call for the 80's style camaro frame and chassis due to the width of the bodies.

You might want to try titanium gold by Tamiya. It has almost the same hue as the header of the real car. Might have to shoot it real fine. I use Model Masters brass to achieve the heat stained look and the come back and hit the weld seams with some silver paint. The build looks awesome.

Shooting the enamel through an airbrush will help speed up the process. The amount of propellant in the can helps delay the curing time of enamel paints. Not sure if an airbrush is in your budget, but if you have one you will never want to use a rattle can again. You are off to a great start. Be careful using a dehydrator after doing body work unless you use a non shrinking putty. A dehydrator will wick what ever moisture left behind and ruin a paint job by the putty shrinking further.

I just wish they were in nickel silver. I do understand the price difference in brass and the nickel silver. But that's why we are modelers. His stuff is top notch. I just hope I can get some time to use the products I purchased. That late model kit looks simply amazing.

I like it. Just seems a bit to tall though. Is that the finished piece or is there more work to do on it. I will be interested in a bunch when they are ready.

Me too. I have built the Saldana Bud sprint car and the Swindell sprint car.
