  1. This is my AMT Don Garlits Wynn’s Jammer replica in 1:25 scale, the kit was released with a clear body, my original plan was to make it see through on one side, but at the end decided to open the cockpit lid and show the interior details, I tucked many pics as posible so you can see all the work done on this one, scratch build the exhaust and the entire gas pedal and linkage, fuel lines are plummet and the parachute is connected too, detail up as much as I can the wheels and tires, rear wheel are from the kit but the tires are from the AMT tires drag set, the front one are super detailed and they are aftermarket made by Miniscurtraitzing, the steering linkage is scratch build too using aluminum tubing, wires and PE nubs, tuck me around 3 months to finished this project, Hope you guys like it...
  2. Beautiful work Joe, love it, one amazing build

  4. i did make some markup on mine, the rear lid works and fit fine, hope yours do too...
  5. Glad you like JC the idea for this project, i have like 4 different Porsche from Monogram, got two of this one, that's why i start with it, still doing minor stuff to this one because i wanted to build a very fine detail project, next step will be strip the engine paint, i dont't like how it looks, was one of my junkyard finds on eBay, that why looks like that Thanks Mike, glad you like it my friend, i'll try to keep up on this one this winter season so i can work all the thing without any painting LOL
  6. Thank you Larry Thanks Francis, i like those type of projects, lucky me i went to a friend house and he was saling a lot of he stuff that he's not going to build, i mentioned to him i wanted to do a Pormod this year and he said (Uh i have something you probably like) and we staring to talk about this project and i stopped almost everything on my bench to work on this one, super fun so far, just love it Here's my latest scratch build, using Styrene rods #222, futurattraction wheelie bars wheels and mesh, added some carbon fiber decal from scale motorsport and turns out really cool for this project, 92" wheelie bars set...

  8. Hello modeler and builders, this is my current project, I've been working on this beast for the las couple weeks, the body i really don't know where it coming from, but my friend told me is from Canada, very soft resin, easy to work, using a chassis parts and engine from the 58 Plymouth Christine promod kit, wheels and tires are from the part box, blower and hat is from competition resin, hope you guys like it.
  9. Hello everyone, this is my Monogram Porsche 911 turbo, i have almost 2 years planning and collecting parts for this project, even that o love this body style i feel that needs some extra. Engine, suspensions and transmission is from tamiya Porsche 959. wheels and tires are from fujimi aftermarket wheels, don't remember the name now. resin spoiler lid from scale productions Front Bumper is from another monogram snap fast Porsche kit. I open the doors just because i want to update a little bit the interior and make it more street racing legal if something like that exist LOL. hope you guys like it, any advise I'll be more then happy to get it...
