I been working on these slowly. I started the pluming on the twin turbo 69 with the LS.. and started the body work on the pro street.. the Pro Street needed some adjustments and rework done on the brass cage... doing the rework aloud me to lower the rear and to fit the tub.. now i can finally add doors . I been making parts like fuel cells for it..

Hey Michael, My opinion on this kit is a good one.. simply put its a 1/25 scale blown up to a 1/12 scale. Everything fits and the finish product is impressive for its size.. like many mentioned before its sad that the kit hasnt been updated with newer options like the Rally Sport package.. standard interior etc.. instead they added new wheels and tires and removed the slicks that the earlier versions had... over all its a nice kit. I collect them and have scratch built many items for it due to the fact that the aftermarket for 1/12 is very limited..i went as far as make my own tires and with the help of Jim at Micro Nitro i get to have the wheels i want.. TDR Innovations also has some nice Parts in 1/12 including turbo kits, seats, and Engines.. so in the end you can try and build your own version.. Cheers, Ralph

Very nice work Michael.. love the extra detail on your work.. alternator, fuel pump, spoiler and chassis..all look great..

Looks really good... nice detail...

Gots to keep going Greg....:-)

The role cage is made from brass.. the seats i copied from a Fujimi Skyline.. the engines are from TDR innovations.. you can find them on the web...i also bought my turbos and turbo kits from them.. the dog dish wheels came from a friend who made them.. currently i dont have permission to sell those... the tires i do sell but the ones with the dog dish are not.. those belong to Teds modeling ( find them on the web)..but i do have other tires available.. pm me.. the wheels are from Micro Nitro.. also on the web.. the hoods belong to me and yes i sell those.. i also have a 350th tranny.. and other goodies in 1/12.. if things go well ill do a small business from home selling 1/12 items... Ralph

Hey Road.. if you look through the thread youll see a how to on it.. its a little difficult to make.. ill try casting one in the future.. the current ones i have are not perfect.. ill post something on it when i do one in resin...check back..

Thank you very much...in RTV as we speak...

Im very happy with the way the L-88 hood came out.. im hoping to have it in RTV tomorrow and in resin by next week..

Im still selling tires if anyone is interested...

Currently i been making some hoods.. i made an L-88 hood and an outlaw hood.. its not killer tall.. its about 4 1/2 inches tall in 1:1 scale..

I want that Camaro Mr Roby..lol..

Great to see you here Mr Roby.. really like this table ever since you posted it..

Sent you a PM..

tp://smg.photobucket.com/user/Ralphlovs1969cars/media/Model%20cars/20150207_204641_zpsbfelldpt.jpg.html] This is slow going but its moving lol... i recently fabbed up a blower belt using a printer belt and electrical tape.. it needs stretching so im going to shorten it up and make a mold of it and cast it in rubber....

I agree with Greg on this one.. Superb ..looks beautyfull.. love the wheels David..

Outstanding Job!

I could never leave well enough alone and with his permission i modified one wheel to be deeper.. ill cast it and make some for safe keeping..

good friend of mines (Tom C.) gave me some steel wheels a while back along with a very nice cowlinduction air cleaner set up... speechles.. i love them.. maybe a sleeper project for someday lol..

I wish it was easier to post through my phone lol.. i wanted to add comments but for some reason i would not let me.. i also started lining up and mocking my turbo set up... its a pain but i must keep on going.. the pro street will be much simpler...just a bbc from tdr and their blower kit... i also started making my own hood... needs more work...
