Jim B Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 While I'm not a big fan of drag racing, I saw hpiguy's video on this kit; and I thought I would give it a go. The model went together quite well, and any short comings are purely due to me and my skill level (or lack there of). Exterior colors are Tamiya Blue TS-15 & Tamiya Pure White TS-26; interior colors & engine bay are Rustolium Semi-Gloss White & Tamiya Medium Blue XF-18; engine is Testors Model Master Ford Blue. I got the idea for the yellow lights & red brakes from hpiguy. Enjoy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoopdog Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Great looking gasser James, I like the blue and white combo too. I did my lights yellow too after seeing HPIGUY's build video. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim B Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Thanks, guys. I appreciate the comments. Ray, the pattern on the seats are just the kit decals. Same for the pattern on the interior door panels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
