  1. yeah the vega is a common car in my family as my dad has owned 12 or 13, heres my future high school driver/drag car its a '71 panel which is very rare. Its got a 355 small block from a sprint car with a super victor with a plate with a 150 hit and a 1050 dominator topping that
  2. I got some paint on the body today, started with a few mist coats and got a wet coat on it but I still need to get a few coats or two before im fully happy with it then ill decal it and get some clear on it. I got some paint on the hood to but something reacted so ill have to sand it and reshoot it.
  3. Thank you Alan for the feedback, I based the rear of the cage off of my dads '71 vega that is certified to 8.50 I think and his is set up similar but it is an all round tube chassis so that's probably why. ill have to keep in mind what you said for my next build with a cage. this is his vega, it is set up to where it could run high 7.90's low 8.s (not legally)but he's been running low nines because poor track prep .This run the track was actually pretty good
  4. That rack looks incredible!!!
  5. Amazing scratch building skills!!!!
  6. the stance on this should look sweet! and great job on the engine as well!!!
  7. I got the white hemi billboards from Al (tubbs) in the mail yesterday and made an airpan for the dominator this morning out of some aluminum and if you look hard you can see the carb just poking through under the cowl
  8. thanks I will!! thanks again Al for the billboards!! cant wait to see what you build next Corey!! thanks Bill!! well a little update, found some small mesh for the grill, finally working on the other tub, and making a piece that goes from the grill to the radiator support that makes it look really clean and hides some of the unrealistic details
