customsrus Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 This is another older build. I molded in the top of a mid 90's Camaro including top of the doors so I could have the rear view mirrors from the Camaro. Reshaped the hood to fit. Front and rear bumper molded in. Added some screen to the front grille opening. Made some red lenses to cover tail lights. Head lights were scratch built. The interior is a modified Camaro, including door panels. The chassis is built from sheet plastic and the front and rear suspensions from a nascar Thunderbird .Scratch built tubs and inner fenders. The engine is a flathead V-16. I took the Flathead from the 1935 Mercedes 500-k and resin casted it. I casted two then split them to make the V-16. Also scratch built most of the engine accessories including the intake, and breather. Paint is HOK silver base with Tamiya Mica Blue.
