Kit Karson Posted November 29, 2022 Author Share Posted November 29, 2022 Took a header break to play with the S.Co.T. Blower... S.Co.T. - Supercharger Company of Turin (Torino), Italy Revell Model A Dual Karb Manifold... Single Barrel Karbs from the Revell Model A... Â Fuel Log from the parts box unknown source... Stacks from the AMT Beverly Hillbillies kit will become screened velocity air cleaners... Let's mock it up... More drilling & pinning... Cut down the stacks... It's going to look nice... A bit too shinny? -KK 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The intent of this Class is for each entrant to start with the same kit, then display their widest array of individual creativity, craftsmanship, building skills, and technical innovations. The entrant may build the entry in any style or vintage. Regardless, all entered models must be based upon the parts from this kit. Entrants may also: i) swap parts from any other kit(s); ii) use any aftermarket parts (except for complete aftermarket resin bodies); and iii) use any building materials, techniques or technologies without restriction.

Doesn't really make a difference in the direction of the '29 TNR but will call for some changes on the tow vehicle! -KK 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
