Rob Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 First of all, thanks to the guys here for adding this forum. Every site should have a drag racing forum! This car was built from the Revell kit of the same car. I reworked the front of the car to add the up to date front wing. I added as much detail as I was able to. The eyes ain't what the used to be.

Rob Posted April 30, 2007 Author Share Posted April 30, 2007 Thanks guys! Hey Ryan, been a while. I used a metalizer on the front wheels, then tinted some tamiya clear yellow until I got it to look decent. Not a perfect match to the original but, close enough to suit me.

Schumacher330 Posted May 1, 2007 Share Posted May 1, 2007 You I have to comment on this awesome ride! I have to ask however, how did you modify the front end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted May 1, 2007 Author Share Posted May 1, 2007 Thanks, The wing was made from a piece of sheet styrene that was heated and bent around a round dowel for the curvature. The end plates were used from the MCG t/f wing PE set. Here are a few pictures that may help, http://public.fotki.com/miarob/in_progress...dragster_build/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
