Psychographic Posted April 1, 2014 Posted April 1, 2014 I took the cab from an an Infini-T dragster, mated it to the nose of a RC Cola Wagon, a turtle deck from the parts box and the grille from a Silhouette were used to start the shape of the back ( the rest of the back end was scratchbuilt. The frame, suspension, and interior are all scratchbuilt (minus the steering wheel and shifter). The engine is from an AMT Corvair with scratchbuilt engine cover, supercharger, intake, fuel regulator, coil, pulleys, belt and part of the exhaust (the tips are from the Barris T Buggy). Other scratchbuilt parts include the headlights, fuel cell, fuel pump, air compressor, and the air tank. Taillights are from the Barris T buggy. The rear wheels are aftermarket diecasts with the centers removed and replaced with the whole wheel from a Deora, disc brakes are pegasus, front wheels are from the Outlaw kit. The paint is nail polish over a white lacquer base.
Psychographic Posted April 1, 2014 Author Posted April 1, 2014 I forgot to take some pics of the hood and trunk open. When the red bled through the yellow I put some freehand quasi ghost flames to hide the red.
