Gumball

Update still needs sanding and a second coat of blue, no fish eyes this time, I think the rubbing alcohol did the trick

Update. Did some painting, gasser body hase some crazy fish eyes going on... just like I remember! From what I recall of my original, there's alot of brutal sanding, stripping, and painting ahead... hood on the truck turned out fine though.

Dragster chassis is complete, truck chassis is complete, its getting there.

Thanks! It's clearly better than the original so far. Just got the rear end together too. Also just finished prepping the bodysuit for paint and primer.

Update

Thanks! I wish I could get all the decals I wanted on there, but I'll definently make another update the day I make them! For now though, its complete.

Update

Thanks! Stay tuned when I win the lottery and build a real 1:1 scale!

Smiles per gallon

Here's the progress

Interesting question, 1mpg?

That's super cool! I saw one about a late 2000s SS impala both a 5.3l upfront and one where the rear seats yous to be making it a double engine AWD SS impala. Thought it was pretty neat, ang perhaps gave me some ideas for future projects.

Lol I'm sure a real 1:1 size would become a pretzel at the slightest key turn!

Couldn't agree more! Iv been slowly collecting the lost kits over the years, many of them I built with my dad when I was alot younger, it's nice that in some way im getting them back. And yes I think it would be awesome to build a trailer for it. When I originally built the kits some years ago, the objective was to attach a trailer however I was less experienced and deemed it beyond my abilities. The trailer for my Datsun and C4 Tiger combo went well, and i'm hoping that I can build this one with a bit more pazzaz, perhaps adding some lights, steps, or a toolbox.

Thanks! There's a bit more progress from working on it this morning, a little more progress to the Gasser.
