Man that is looking awsome it just needs the gas and your smokin and the colours go so good together great work mate. Could you tell me where is the best place to find info on wiring for Pro Mods thanks Darryl.

[1/16 Dodge Daytona Pro Mod]

I also choose to make a new design rear wing and open up the back glass to look more like a charger style and give the front a little grill and spot lights , so on with the build and lets see what else we can update lol Darryl.

[1/16 Dodge Daytona Pro Mod]

Hi guys back with a few photos of my proposed paint idea and decals that i am attempting to do myself for the first time so the two basic colours will be Yellow Pearl (bottom half) with Purple Pearl on top and remember this is just a ruff setup. It has taken a lot of time to sort out the layout and colours and to keep wiyh an idea of the past sponsors of the time so here we go and i would welcome your coments thanks lol Darryl.

Keep up the great work, I definitely am keeping an eye on this project!

Thanks you for looking at my project and kind remarks. When I start a new build I do a lot of research and the places to get the right parts. I try to do more scratch building each time a new build starts so try the build as their is a lot of guys here to help.

[1/16 Dodge Daytona Pro Mod]

I love these types of scratch builds. Great work sir !

So do I.This is my first attempt at a 1/16th build and I'm lovin it. I have always built 1/24th and1/25th Drag,Custom, Rods, thanks for the kind words Jarrod.

[1/16 Dodge Daytona Pro Mod]

Beautiful workmanship there. As for the coil springs, I just wind my own. That way you know they'll fit.

I am glad I decided to post my build on this forum as there is a lot of encouragement and a lot of good advice. Great Modelers here and lots of incredible work going on thank you for your feedback.
