txfatboy Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 As I dig out the hobby room and reacquaint myself with its contents, I thought I would post up some of my past builds. This was a Tony Nancy kit I built a few years ago. The theme was a dragster that a few buddies could have built in a garage back in the day. It has some minor detail changes mainly being the headers from aluminum tubing. The biggest disappointment are the rear tires. I tried to do something about the seam but the rubber is super thin and it just tore. I may consider a resin replacement if they are available.

txfatboy Posted August 30, 2016 Author Share Posted August 30, 2016 Appreciate the compliments. This was my first 1/16 scale build. Gotta eventually do something about those rear tires though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
