1988 Quaker State Buick, Ricky Rudd

Thanks, Bruce, I will use the Hoosiers on any of the 1988 builds I do, because I love the story of the tire wars from that year ,and it adds variety to the display case. -
Makes sense, I'll try it, thanks!

I like the details you added, with the wheels and the brakes, where did you get those brakes?
-
This looks great! How did you modify the seat? I have a few of those AMT seats that I could use as well.
-
Nice job, this turned out really good.

I finished this car several weeks ago, but I forgot to add a window net, so I had to make one for it. buildup is in the WIP section.

This is looking great, seeing all the pieces in detail like this makes me want to build one of these new style kits.
-
Just about done, but after I glued the body onto the chassis, I realized I forgot to make a window net for it. I'll make one before I add it to the "under glass" section.

Final assembly of the chassis.

I ddi end up using that textured foil.

Wow, that's really cool! 3D printing is really going to expand the limits of our hobby. You were doing a bang-up job on the scratch built body you had going, though!
-
This is a great idea, I am looking forward to watching this build!
-
I used .060 x .060" strips.

That's what I was thinking too, the quilted look is good, but I wonder if its going to be too large of a pattern? I'll have to see when I get the seat mounted in there and the dashboard on, if it looks alright.
