"A Certain T" kit bashed and scratch built knockoff of the Uncertain T

[magicmustang]

Have a WIP on this build. Started with an AMT Infini T dragster kit. Most of the parts are from this kit. Lowered the side window openings and shortened the frame. Radiator, dash, steering wheel and seats are from the parts box. Rebuilt the interior floor. Injected Buick nail head engine is from a Revell Ivo Showboat dragster kit, auto trans and quick change rear axle are from the parts box. Headers (rebuilt) are from an MPC Outcast kit. Key push bar is from a Revell '51 Anglia kit. Added a rear access panel for the battery and gas tank. Paint is Testors rattlecan Fiery Orange lacquer. 

Let me know what you think.

This thing is so creative! I have this kit, still in it's shrink wrap because I hadn't come up with a good idea of what to do with it!  You have achieved that in spades! Such a clever design.

Cheers

Very well executed Gerald!

Such a great idea. I've bypassed that kit every time I've seen it, even at $10 a couple times. Now I'm kicking myself for not grabbing one because I want to do the same thing! Great job.
