cobraman Posted March 31, 2020 Author Share Posted March 31, 2020 Thanks guys . I filled the hole in the hood. Swapped the headers . Notched the body to clear the headers . Still have not figured out body mounts . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STYRENE-SURFER Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 This is great, was thinking "Revellion" after seeing the first pic.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Thanks for that . I laid down some orange paint today . Also drilled a couple holes to mount a push bar . Next will be decals and clear coat unless I decide to two tone the paint job . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Thanks guys ! Ya a fade could work. Thanks for the pic Scott I think I will make a part like 59 but mount it more forward. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alan barton Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 What a great combination of parts Ray! You've got me excited - I have the same body and frame in my stash and it's a combo I really like. After all, this is virtually the same as what Garlits did with his Dart roadster funnycar so it is definitely feasible. I'm also really enjoying the very business - like finishes you put on the frame components and the clever use of funnycar headers to get the exhaust outside the body. Great model!

drag racer 15 Posted April 2, 2020 Share Posted April 2, 2020 (edited) I think a white roof would look good because I’m my mind these bodys are to flat and bulky and need something to beak it up a bit also How did you cut the hole in the back of the body and keep an even radius to the curve? it looks great so far can’t wait to see more Edited April 2, 2020 by drag racer 15 Hit post to soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
