lol, thats right, my AWD type-S is a FOUR POINT OH that just sounds cool the whole judging thing is purely for fun, but then again, so is this entire build its just a lot more entertaining this way

why do men like women in leather ? because they have that new car smell

you just hide them in a bushel of bananas dont you ?

this is coming out really nice i hope im not imposing but...since the door panels are from the edsel and i guess you wont be needing the stock ones think they would fit in my 53 ford PU ? for whatever reason my kit has no inner door detail (check out the link in my siggy to see the build)

great now i got that darn song stuck in my head tum tu dum tum dum dum tum tu dum tum there is a house in new orleans they caaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal the riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii sing sun seriously, though, i like it its a good way to incorporate some hints to the origin of the car and sport into the project this might earn you some nice points in the final judging (did i mention by the way that when the build off is over i am going to post a poll where each entry is a choice and everyone on the board gets to cast their vote?)

muke sure you get the BRABUS twin turbo version

what exactly are you after ? i might have it since i got the same kit scavenged

i know how that goes, i have 2 projects im working on besides the drifter and it is nice to do some "no brains required" assembling in between

"imitates accent from the movie taken" good luck

come on dude, look at the picture it looks more like a roll cage then a carbody its tiny

that had me ROFLing i mean WHAT body ???

you sir are in violation of rule 1 and 3 (and 4 if you consider the 8 million Dutch women)

we keep all our drift cars right here http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=20133

im counting 14 spokes

i can measure the Vtec if you want, im installing one in my drifter (as you know) also , i still would suggest just keeping everything under one roof as for as the drifter WIPs goes

i think the closest you'll get in scale are porsche twist wheels very similar design but different bolt pattern and they are 5 spokes

your not peeking of my project are you ? lol iether way, its cool i would suggest keeping everything in one thread though, (including certain enzos) just to keep us from clogging the entire workbench forum its also a good motivater for us to see everybody elses progress

if you can find another one i would build the ULTIMATE AUTOMOBILE

yeah, you are gonna need some wheels for sure , otherwise it wouldnt roll here is my car, i did some work on the body, got most of the filler and smoothign out down there was one casting dip that i fixed, i molded the bumpers and skirts into the body scratchbuild the airscoops and.........i found a spoiler that is perfect for this build (because it is caron fiber, duh) i also layed some paint down on the inside of the car and the seats

added you to the list

nice progress james if the interior comes out anything like the engine that will be an awesome car are you going to ad gauges to the HVAC/radio delete plate ? (i just might steal that idea)

got a little more work done over the weekend i did most of the interior and got the stance just about right im waiting on some window tint film to show up in the mail and then ill finish her up

on the wheels, i would lead the outside lip chromed but here it comes are you ready for it any day now i would suggest wrapping the spokes in CARBON FIBER i mean, it seems to be a returning accent on these drifters (for crying out loud, im even adding CF accents in mine) and you want the wheels to be as light as possbile for easy spinning (like that enzo lack the power to do so ) also on a side note, to keep the "workbench" section organized and to keep every one involved on thier toes i would suggest deleting this thread and posting your WIP shot and ideas in the driftcar WIP thread we allready have in the "workbench" section

i always liked the snorkels on those cars it is what inspired the intake on my drifter car

yes she does http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1wtOz7OD24 4:50 its al right there
