crossfire 2004 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Just a quick fun build of the ICM 1:24 speedster, ditched the fenders and moved everything rearward in the frame for that race car look, while the grille was formed over the stock piece. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLMFAA1 Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 Nice version since the kit uses standard rounded fenders and not speedster flatter squared off versions. Like the different radiator shroud, It would be nice if someone cast or manufacture the old bucket seats that could be used in other open cab applications greg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

misterNNL Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Great idea and representation of a brass era speedster. Love that radiator shell. Any pix of that part under construction that you can share? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smoke Wagon Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Nice lil speedster, the gray looks great on it. From the days before we did crazy things like adding carbon to rubber and vulcanizing it. Cars have really come a long way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but I have no build shots of the T speedster, from memory I built forward from the original radiator using plastic sheet, filler and a modicum of ability until it resembled a Livingstone item.

Thanks. That nose-on photo does in fact gives me the basic layout of the flat panels I would need to make to replicate that torpedo like radiator shell.
