Here is my Drift build off entry.

Testors Isuzu Impulse Turbo..

Taking a page from Mr Zinn on wheels.

front wheels are his daily Drivers and the rears are for drifting.

15"inch tires are cheaper to waste than 19"s :D

I Lowered the front about 3"inches, left the rear stock height and added Disc Brakes.

I'm fairly sure these will be the finished wheels.

I ended up having to mask and Repaint the white from the front of the doors, all the roof and rear.

A first Custom paint job for me and a Finished one to boot. :D

Thanks for looking..

Thanks all.

This is actaully the first Model I have finished in Many years.

I have started many tho. :lol:

The paint job is Different and wasn't all too hard or too easy.

Just coming up with a paint theme that would make it stand out against the other Heavy Competition

of Great builders in the build off was the hardest part.

and I didn't have any Drifter Sponsor decals available.

I did get the 2 Watanabe wheels from Mr Zinn Too. ;):lol:

Interior pics.
