Okay, bud, to me, plastic modelling is an art in itself, as is the soldered metal works of people like Randy. What you do with plastic, and what AFX does with plastic is OUTSTANDING!!! -Just because someone doesn't feel the need to use all the high-tech upgrade stuff, doesn't mean its inferior....actually, I think its harder, and takes more skill to create things out of plastic. To me, its like my fellow bodybuilding friends; I'm a successful natural, and they are successful steroid competitors. They don't say their better than me, and vise versa. Metal builds, and plastic builds CANT be judged against each other. I'm pretty good with making BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH happen with plastic, but I could NEVER do what Randy does. You are a true artist!!!

Freaking SWEET, bud!!!!!!, it feels like its almost there!!

AMAZING job on this, bud!!!, I didn't even know this kit existed!

Nice looking 'Cuda!!!!

Absolutely STUNNING build, bud!!!!

So glad to see you back to this one!!!

Looks like your work of art is almost done, bud!!!

This is looking FANTASTIC!!….love the concept!!!

This is pretty much self explanatory...

Thanks a lot, bud!!

Thanks, bud!!...I honestly cant remember any difficulties with this kit...it was nice for a change.

Thanks, bud!.....I will, and you're right.

I love those builds...maybe even more than my detailed ones!.....I like relaxing, lol

Here are the instructions showing the ball joint- wheel hub assembly...

Hey, everyone!, now that the Reventon is done, i'm back at this build, and after these bits are painted, assembly will start moving along pretty quickly I think. Todays task is to mount all these parts for painting...its gonna take a little while, lol -Photo 1& 2; Since I pre-assembled certain parts, I now need to drill some things out to affix the struts, and torsion bar bits. -Photo 3 ; I had to eliminate one of the interior buckets contacts since both wouldn't fit properly together. -Photo 4; Here I show the bigger spaces I cut out for the larger Naca ducts I made. -Photo 5; After the final clean-up, and sanding of all the annoying bits of framework, I was able to pre-assemble two more supports before painting. -Photo 6; Using smooth, and hex rods, I begin SB my own bolts for these suspension bits. I made them slightly smaller diameter, to allow for paint thickness. -Photo 7& 8; You would think that these bonnet pieces would have definite contact points, but they DONT, so I used thin strips of styrene to give me that fit-assurance....you don't wanna get that far in final assembly, and have to start breaking things off to fix! Yes, they aren't on the real car, but I don't care...1) Its my custom of a real custom, and 2) with the body, belly-pan, and tyres, you wont notice them. -Photo 9; Pre-assembly of this crossmember just makes life easier. -Photo 10; Just an upper view of my locator tabs. -Photo 11; The SB bolts are all ready to go!, I left them a bit longer, so that I could snip them at the exact length during assembly...since I need to make the nuts on the ends with my hex rod. -Photo 12; Since I glued the front wheel hub assemblies together, I needed to get rid of the lips on all of the ball joint bits, or they would no longer fit in. -Photo 13; Here you can see the brackets for the front upper control arms. I had to round the inner "humps" to allow the arms to utilize their full range of motion. You can see the difference with the rear one to the right. Only the front ones needed this adjustment.

You bet, bud!!!

LOL....Yes we do!!!!

Its looking GREAT still, Bud!!!...looking forward to more!!!

Another rarely seen build.....and you did a BEAUTIFUL job on it!!!!….its like a little Ferrari!

Hey, Bud!!….this turned-out AMAZING!!!!!! Its funny as hell that you added all the bug guts too!!!....i'm not brave enough to do that to a build yet, but its awesome!!!
