Altered Ego

Absolutely, I want to build an S&M car, a California Flash car and a Vanke car.

Very cool! I am hoping MPC will re-do the other cars in the Pro Stock Series. I would like to build a few Dusters.

Simply an amazing job!

Incredibly cool project and incredibly well done.

Those sound cool, be sure to post them here!

Amazing job on one of my favorite Pro Stockers of all-time.

MW Elky, Both will be very cool, I am intrigued by the Challenger. StanA, nice work on the Daytona.

Wow, are you building a Colt?

Taking inspiration from dragcarz and his awesome Shirley Shahan AMC Pro Stock Hornet, I built this during the Chili Bowl Nationals. I used the MPC Pro Stock Series Vega chassis and interior. The Gremlin body and engine are from the AMT kit. This required surprisingly little surgery on the chassis. Most of the work was done behind the rear axle centerline. The interior required the most work shortening the tub 10" between the driver seat and wheel tubs. The Gremlin dash required a little work to fit the Vega tub, but everything else worked rather easily. Even the Vega side windows fit with no alterations! I do have a few detail items to finish up, but happy with the result. This has me thinking about a Bob Glidden Plymouth Arrow.

I built this one a while ago. My Uncle Frank raced a Vega with this paint scheme and I just made it into a Pro Stocker.

I can't believe this is your first gasser. You nailed the stance. Please do build more gassers and keep sharing them!

That is an impressive display Mike. Nice work.

That was a kit bash between The Wedge dragster and the Cosmic Charger. Made for a pretty cool streamliner. I would love to build a Garlits Wynn's Liner if anyone made a Jocko Liner body.

Though I would share some my dragster builds and let everyone that I not just a Super Stock, A/FX, Altered Wheelbase guy. Although, those dominate my shelves by quite a margin.

That is an impressive shelf of Funny Cars and I love the diorama. Keep up the great work and keep sharing.

Nice work Scott8950, that Valiant is super cool!

Thanks to MW Elky for the inspiration and the information on the decals for this build. Also, thanks to Zen for providing much needed parts. I kit bashed the Moebius Chevy II gasser kit and the '64 Nova kit. I used Thunderbolt traction bars and crossmember to create the traction bar assembly you see in the picture. I also reconditioned the wheelie bars in the kit to be radius rods for the front axle. Again, referencing the brackets on the front axle in the picture. The big block is from the AMT '63 Corvette kit and the front tires are also Thunderbolt pieces. My biggest issue is finding a set of headers to fit.

Welcome to the club of us sick and twisted enough to cut up perfectly good model kits for the altered wheelbase look. Seriously, looks great, nice job!

That is very cool. My favorite part is the fender cutout for header clearance. Well done.

I want to echo what papajohn97 said. I am impressed and jealous all at the same time. I can't wait for the Moebius kit so I can add this one to my collection. A very nice piece of work and even I am amazed at your productivity.

Two that immediately come to mind will be the Delmar Heinatt Seaton's Shaker and Malcolm Durham's Strip Blazer AWB Chevelles. These will be great in my collection.

I am impressed with how this turned out and even more impressed with some of the details. However, like cobraman, I am completely blown away that this only took a week and a half!

I love the concept and the primered tilt hood and fenders make the whole thing period correct. Very nice work.

I think it's great. I did this one as the Osburn Trucking Galaxie. What makes your shelf of shame makes my prize possession shelf.

This is great! I hadn't even thought of the Jungle Jim Hercules car. Don't be surprised if I study this and copy it. I built my first one as the Steve Bovan 396-II car. My second one was the same kit bash you did, except that I built mine as the Dick Harrell altered wheelbase car. You can see both on my thread here, Altered Wheelbase Fun.
