58 Impala Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 (edited) Ive been a member of this forum for quite a while. Finally got a decent camera. I built Dragula pretty much from what was in the kit. It's painted with Model master and Krylon paints with 2part automotive clear. I used MAS photo etch front wheels/tires, the rear slicks are from Competition Resin. I didnt like the kit's exhaust so I made custom pipes from 3/32 aluminum tubing and polished them. Thanks for looking. Edited February 6, 2014 by 58 Impala Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace-Garageguy Posted February 5, 2014 Share Posted February 5, 2014 Man, your paint looks great and your pipes and PE wheels really bring it to life. Nice work sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roncla Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Thats very well done. Nothing brings a kit with plastic wire wheels to life more than substituting them with p/e or hand laced wires. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

58 Impala Posted February 6, 2014 Author Share Posted February 6, 2014 Man that casket should be in a showroom looks real!! Great job on the pipes, did you use solder inside for bends? Like it Thanks for all the comments. Bruce I put a piece of 1/16 aluminum rod where the bends are to keep from collapsing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
