maltsr Posted October 30, 2015 Posted October 30, 2015 This is the AMT Bantam Blast fuel altered with aftermarket decals. The front coil/shocks were replaced with scratchbuilt items and basic wiring and plumbing has been added. The paint is Duplicolour with Tamiya Clear.
Snake45 Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 Very nice! You've captured the spirit and feel of the era quite well!
AZ Boy Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 A fine looking build, Paul..! Just the right amount of detail.
RAT-T Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 LOOKS GREAT PAUL, COULD I ASK WHAT SHADE OF BLUE IT IS?
10thumbs Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 That car looks fine to me, cleanly built with a nice paint job. Altereds are just cool in my book.How did you get the effect on the wheels?

MAGIC MUFFLER Posted November 2, 2015 Posted November 2, 2015 A good friend of mine used to drive this car - his name is Jerry Rushing. He sent me this pic recently of him piloting it down the track for another wild run! Thx for sharing the build ..
