That looks great Vince, nice color choice. What happened with the front of the hood?

Most real looking car I've seen on this forum. Amazing Yuri!

We are builders!!!!!!!!!!!! Onward and upward!!!!!!!!

Tom, I looked at your build of the Chevelle and,........ looks pretty darn good to me, you'll be building some great stuff in no time! Welcome back to modeling! Have fun!

Cool build Tye! I've never seen this kit before. Nice job!

Nice looking wheels for sure Brad. Ya, there are some posts missing because I remember you posting pics of these wheels. 'ALL' of my posts (not just this thread) from around 20th of November forward are missing. Looking forward to seeing more on your build. Gene

The 'Beast', the school bus from hell! Hold on Kiddies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks good Ira!

Niko, here's a pic of the 'original' Walt's Puffer (the car the AMT Double Dragster Fiat is primarily based on), so you can see the stance of the car, which I've never seen anyone get right (including me), the front ends are always 'too high', there's a slight drop on the front of the original car which I think looks really cool. I thought you could pull it off if you were so inclined. Gene

Niko, thanks for the compliment. I love Altereds too and will be watching your build for sure. The tinted glass is the clear glass from the kit sprayed with one coat(?) of Tamiya 'Clear Blue' TS-72. I didn't want it too dark.

Hi Michael, Thanks for the comment, I really appreciate it. And, thanks for following along and sharing your thoughts. Ya, I wasn't sure about the inside color but I guess it works. And that one stupid hair keeps showing up in the photos!

I got the under body painted, I used MM Gun Metal from the bottle. The floor pan is Testors Flat Aluminum from the bottle. It looks a little cheesy so I'll touch it up. Now on to final assembly! (woops, not quite yet, can't decide if I want to clear it, and , then gotta make the decal). And putting the steering rod in.

Stan, this looks 'really' good, and real. That last picture is really cool. What did you use for the 'class' designation on the windows?

Thanks Bob! Glad you like it, I put a lot of work into this car. Ira, thanks very much. I like your work and follow it all the time. Stan, Thanks. Us drag racing freaks gotta stick together!

Beautiful Chris, a must build for me someday too. Great detail, love the safety harness, where did that come from? Or, did you do it?

Another beautiful build Chris, what did you do with it?

That's b-e-a-u-t-i-f-u-l Chris! I think you have set the new bar for AWB Chevy's, lol!

Thanks Ace!

Gerald, if you 'coned' those tubes out it would be a dead ringer, but , it looks really good/close as it is. Gene.

VERY cool Tim. What a great subject and great work by you bringing it to life in scale. Any info on how this car actually performed in the real world?

Well, it's been a while but he lives! This is the latest mock-up. A lot has changed in the interim, mostly out of necessity, and there are many things that are incorrect, but , I hope you like the vibe. The next step is to paint the inside of the body and floor pan. All comments and questions are welcome. Thanks.

Looks good Niko, nice job on the clutch cover! And yes, those ejector marks had to go.

Looking good Ira, that scoop and those tanks are killer! Did you use Tamiya Silver leaf on the tanks?

Great looking car! Love the color.

That engine looks awsome Ira!
