  1. Wes's Model Car Corner is good to mail order from, they also have a retail store in Blountville, TN. Very good to deal with
  2. Thanks for the kind words guys, I should have cleaned some of the fingerprints off before pictures.
  3. built box stock, painted stripes except rocker stripes are decals.
  4. snuggles in there pretty nice in a 1:1, Sonic Blue also.
  5. Some of the outlaw racers call the front end extensions "Pecker Extenders" Very nice detail, the only thing is a Pro Mod would not have a belt-driven water pump. Most blown Pro Mods would have the fuel pump mounted there.
  6. looking good !!
  7. I think the turn signals were on toggle switches on the dash,
  8. Very nice work so far, you might look into moving the rear wheel well back just a little or shortening the bed between the wheel wells and the tailgate. Going to be a cool ride !!
  9. When I get one, I'll put up some pix, he said late January.
  10. Fireball Modelworks is going to make me the carb in 1/12 scale
  11. a 10.5 Outlaw car will have a rear slick with a 10.5" width designation. The height can be 28", 29.5", 31", or 33". The height varies according the fitment on the car and chassis. 31x10.5 is common.
  12. Thanks Guys for the help. I just ordered some parts from Shapeways, so I have looked for them all over that site with no luck. I just emailed Fireball about them.
  13. Does anyone 3D print a Holley carb with the correct "Lemans" float bowls as was used on the GT40s ?
  14. It's supposed to be a Accel Turbosonic setup. The carb set on top of the adapter and the turbo drew the air/fuel mixture through the carb and blew it through the bottom half of the adapter into the intake.
  15. With the carbon fiber parts that I have had experience with (Drag Cars), it's not that the paint is transparent and you can see the carbon through the paint, but it's the fact that carbon has a texture that shows up. It's the fact that the surface that is painted has a weave texture that shows through the paint. Unless there is a lot of sanding and blocking, then it becomes invisible because the surface is smooth. This is my experience with race cars, no experience at all with exotics.
  16. Looks good !!! Like the color.
  17. Crown Vic police cars in the background.
  18. looks good got a few Crown Vics ?
