29 Hiboy Roadster

Recommended Posts

Started with the original release of the Revell 29 Roadster which was lowered as the stock version was just too high IMHO

Front end lowered with flat cross member replacing the original 

Rear lowered by lifting cross member up and using shorter coil overs that I machined up

The centre section of rear cross member raised to clear rear end

Flathead motor used from Revell 32 Tudor c/w flathead front engine mount cross member

Painted in Tamiya X-4 blue with X-14 sky blue interior accents - No clear used

The rest is from the 29 Roadster 

See build up in WIP

Good looking roadster! The correction you made to the stance is so much better than how it comes, they really failed in that area. I really like the color scheme and the hopped up flathead was a great choice. Nice work building new front pipes to hook up with the kits mufflers and tailpipes.
