wayne swayze Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Great job making this into a salt flats racer! If your photos were in black and white, it would look like an old cover car on one of those "little" magazines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Mighty fine looking salt car. Looks like it would easily make it into the 200 mph club. Great job on the weathering. I have built one salt car, but it is in need of a redo; it didn't come out like I really wanted. Really love those salty dogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dennis Lacy Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 This is one of the neatest build-ups of the channeled version of this kit I've seen yet. I really like the color scheme, the aggressively cut down windshield, the half tarp and the lakes weathering. The car definitely has "the look."

Tyler62990 Posted June 10, 2016 Author Share Posted June 10, 2016 Thanks again for the kind words gentlemen.Mighty fine looking salt car. Looks like it would easily make it into the 200 mph club. Great job on the weathering. I have built one salt car, but it is in need of a redo; it didn't come out like I really wanted. Really love those salty dogs.Try out the Tamiya powders for military models. They come in a three pack that looks like a makeup case and seem to stick better than regular pastels. I use the "snow" one for my salt, but the rust, soot, and metal ones have been useful many times. Useful to the point that they're the only thing I use except for a wash here and there lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robberbaron Posted June 12, 2016 Share Posted June 12, 2016 Nice build - amazing how much of an improvement you get just by chopping that windshield. I'm surprised more builders don't do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beatnick Posted June 13, 2016 Share Posted June 13, 2016 would look great sitting next to my number 44. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
