DonW Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 A bit dodgy looking but I'd have a go in it if it were a 1:1! Dashboard looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Payne Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Didn’t spot the lava plow, but wouldn’t the molten lava have an adverse on the tires (unless the heat makes them sticky for more traction)?😉 Very imaginative build! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

papajohn97 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 (edited) Michelle, I commend you on this and other recent “modeling outside of the box” postings. You are doing some really creative scratch building and kit bashing, a nice break from the rivet counting obsession some scale modelers pursue (and most of us fail at!). I knew nothing about “Hot Wheel Accelracers” but your funny description about the special tires made me laugh and led to a Google search. Thanks for sharing!

David G. Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 I did a search on the Spine Buster car just to see what your inspiration was and I have to say that you made a great choice for your starting point. I can see that you put a lot of work into the mods and you quite effectively captured the feel of your inspiration. Well, done! David G.
