  5. Very nice, good clean build that engine almost looks real
  6. I love that color very clean build. Where did you get that aircleaner from?
  7. Nice I love the detail work in the engine bay
  8. My sedan had the luggage rack and spare wheel cover as on the right side photos and the dash the same as the left photo but right hand drive.
  9. Very nice work on the paint
  10. Awesome work reminds me of a full sized single spinner that used to be in the hot rod club I was a member of
  11. Wow that is cool I love the twin headlamps I don't remember seeing that sort of thing being done before. The paint color and shine looks great. Would love to see some closeups of the engine bay and maybe the underside. Great work
  12. Just to give you the idea of what a modified looks like here in New Zealand these two photos were take at last seasons South Island Champs
  13. I think the 32 will really come to life when I have added the engine details. I will post some pictures when they are done
  14. The following pics are of a very long term project I am working on. A SUPER MODIFYED New Zealand style. The model is based on the 'Monogram' Steve Butler Sprint Car kit, and has been modified to comply with the Super Modified regulations. The fuel injection unit has been removed and replaced with a manifold robbed from the parts box, and topped of with a 'Curbside Dioramics' Holley carb detailed with 'S&S specialties' Carb linkages and a few scratch built bits. The cooling system has been remodelled also to be more accurate as has the external oiling system. The body has been cut and bent from litho plate, a thin aluminium product used in the printing industry. The chassis has also been changed a bit to be more accurate, and will be fitted with a scratch built fuel tank to replace the sprintcar tailcone tank. The cockpit will be detailed with a 'Verlinden products' lever action harness and a scratch built brake system, and engine electrics. Engine detailing will be finished off with a 'Detail Master' wired distributor and a scratch built exhaust and mufflers This model will be part of a diorama of a pit scene, complete with the transporter, modelled from a modified 'AMT' Peterbuilt wrecker kit, and a 'Fujimi' Mechanic and tool kitset. When I get back into this build I will start a build thread on this forum. I also have two other projects on the go the Fujimi Honda civic SiR II kit, inspiration taken from my own 1to1 car and the AMT 66 Nova SS being built pro street style. Once I get my work bench tidyed off and find some spare time I will also start build threads on these also. I hope you enjoy these pics Chris
  15. This one was built from the Monogram kit
