dwc43 Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 The Coyote X uses BFG T/A's with white letters. Plenty of those out there.

That's what is in the kit..... They're just very undersized for this car. I know the BFGs have that distinctive tread, but I was thinking of whatever tires I use, I would get some of the decals for the BFGoodrich lettering....
dwc43 Posted June 24, 2023 Posted June 24, 2023 Yep, did not think about the tire decals when I said that. lol
Fantom Posted June 25, 2023 Posted June 25, 2023 Texas 3D Customs makes BFG Radial ta’s in a few different sizes. May want to check them out. 2
JollySipper Posted June 28, 2023 Author Posted June 28, 2023 Those are good pics....... The last one shows how low and wide the Coyote X should be. The kit's proportions are just a little off, making it look too long.......
magicmustang Posted June 28, 2023 Posted June 28, 2023 Found this pic on the internet with interior shots. 1
Brandon Miller Posted June 28, 2023 Posted June 28, 2023 Man this just makes that theme song come flooding back from when I was a kid. Drive! 1

It IS a cool car....... Funny thing, I haven't watched the show since I was a kid. It's probably more corny than the Duke boys now..... 1
jaftygas Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 That car was super cool then and it’s super cool now!

If you have the idea to use them at the front too, they would just not look right IMO. Has anyone heard anything from mrm lately? I was trading with him for the tires that I need..... haven't heard anything since Wednesday when I gave him his tracking. I hope he's alright............
JollySipper Posted July 13, 2023 Author Posted July 13, 2023 Well, guys...... I guess Mozzi Mozzbourne here has shafted me on our one-sided trade. I sent him tracking last week and I have heard nothing since. What bites the most is I sent him the Beetle kit, so I don't have much in the way of trade fodder now....... People.......
peteski Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 I would not give up yet. He has been a member here since 2011, and has 2,100 post count. Last visited on July 5th. I don't think he would shaft another member here for some model kit parts, then run. Something probably happened to delay him. It would be nice if he contacted you with an explanation, but maybe he can't? 1

Have you sent him a pm?
JollySipper Posted July 14, 2023 Author Posted July 14, 2023 Yea, I sent him a PM, and if his notifications are set it would have shown up in his email, too..... It's all okay, though! I've already had a friend offer to make some tires for me.
mrm Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 I have not shafted anyone. I had to drop everything and literally fly over over to Europe on a family emergency. I just got back this past weekend and first thing I did was to send the tires over. You should have them any day now.
JollySipper Posted July 19, 2023 Author Posted July 19, 2023 Sorry I doubted you, man! I've sent you a message...... 1
JollySipper Posted July 26, 2023 Author Posted July 26, 2023 Guys, I've since gotten the tires from mrm! I do believe they have the look that I was after..... The body is sitting on the tires in the pics, but will be higher once the tanks are in place........
Dann Tier Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 I'm loving this!! its about time someone built it again!! 1

Looking good. I have finished my VW chassis, VW engine, interior, wheels and tires on my build. Now on to the body work. Edited August 10, 2023 by magicmustang
magicmustang Posted August 17, 2023 Posted August 17, 2023 Whoa! Just a heads up, test fit the windshield before painting, took a lot of sanding to get it flush with the body. 1
JollySipper Posted August 17, 2023 Author Posted August 17, 2023 (edited) If you wanted to show what you have going on with your kit here in this thread, you're more than welcome to...... Edited August 17, 2023 by JollySipper
