At time I built this I would have regular gray krylon primer. I think that’s it, but I could have possibly sprayed it with a gold under coat which would also have been testors enamel.bear with me it’s been about 9 years since I built this one.thanks for the nice complements

I’ve been on a fuel altered building jag this winter.this was built from a Fremont resin body and decal kit,and a revell 32 ford 5 window coupe for the chassis,interior,and hemi block,heads,intake,and valve covers.the blower,belt drive,timing cover,and rear wheels are from the amt 1963 corvette.front wheels are parts box. I made the front axle from aluminum tubing.the front spring and shocks came from the amt jumbo kit which is a wealth of drag parts.a great deal when it’s on sale at hobby lobby.paint color is testers lime 2 part lacquer.

This one is a combination between the original revell body and interior tin and the chassis from the mpc bounty hunter kit.I moved the front axle back between the frame rails to fit the wheel base and had to cut tin work to fit around engine .the back wheels are polar lights. The body color is testers metallic red enamel decals are slixx .even though the body is a little wacky in its dimensions it can still be made into a decent looking kit.it’s nice to see Atlantis bringing this one back

This is my first post so I’m going to start with my favorite funny car pilot I built this using a Amt/ertl camaro body with the front wheel well’s cut out and moved forward the patch panels behind wheel wells were cut from the side of a donor body which will provide enough material for several conversions. The chassis and interior is sourced from the mpc hot rod funny car and will work with little or no modification — I pulled mine out of the spare parts box I had to make the front axle from aluminum tubing. The rear end is from the amt 1967 comet the transmission is from the revell 1932 5window coupe the decals are slixx the body color is tamiya

Hi all I’m recently semi retired and thought it would be a good time to share the images of the over 300 drag car’s I’ve built over the past 40 years plus a few passed down from my dad I only build drag cars from the 50’s to the early 80’s every time a new or reissued kit comes out I feel like 14 all over again I’m looking forward to giving you some more insensitive for new builds
