This one started with an Iceman Collections 3-D printed fantasy motor that looked too sweet to hide under a hood. It went together nicely with a '32 Ford tranny grafted on.
Put in front of a Jimmy Flintstone chopped 5 Window Coupe body (NB213), and the two seemed just made for each other.
The frame, interior, and miscellaneous bits came from the ubiquitous Revell 5-Window Coupe 2'n 1 kit.
The frame was stretched 6mm to accomodate the V12, but otherwise required little else in terms of modifications. The toughest part was channeling the body over the frame rails, and altering the interior to fit. The front tires were from an AMT Wire Wheels & Whitewalls customizing set, while the rears were from an AMT Racemaster Dragster Slicks set.
Once completed with its long and lean good looks, graphics were applied from various sources, and "Betty Lou" was ready to debut. In Bob Seger's words;
I got the story here
It's hot off the press
Brace yourself now
And take a deep breath
Grab a hold of something
Hold on tight
Betty Lou's gettin' out tonight
