California Flash hood needed
ratnasty replied to ratnasty's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I know Jeff and thanks for the refund I understand about family issues and stuff . I know things happen but I am building a car someone and I'm in the middle getting pinched on when the car will be done. I don't need a perfect hood , Just the scoop would work if you have a junk one laying around would really help. I wish you and your family the best Chuck -
California Flash hood needed
ratnasty replied to ratnasty's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
I had to get a refund from Jeff cause I ordered it September of last year and he had not sent it to me or poured as of last week, so I couldn't wait any longer so I ask for a refund so I could find one else where. I don't care who you are 5 months to wait is too long Chuck -
California Flash hood needed
ratnasty replied to ratnasty's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed

Revell Tom "The Mongoose" McEwen Rail Dragster
ratnasty replied to Evil Appetite's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
Ok guys here is everthing about this kit this is a direct repop of the orginal Snake and Mongoose kits from 1973 hence the copyright on the box. The tires are from the original series of funny cars and prostocks less the raised letters...I just checked some kits. here the original box arts. The decals for the carefree cars for both dragsters are done and available through Chuck Boener. I gave him my set to redo them I plan on recasting the rear tires so you will be able to build the car like the original. and finally the kit as issued depicts a car that never ran .......the Fly Navy dragster never ran a front wing thanks Chuck -

welcome back Chuck

Hi Chris , I removed 3/16th of an inch in front of the windshield of the hood and moved the rear wheel well back 1/16th of an inch. I moved the rear wheel back is because the wheel well was to far forward. I had a freind over lay my changes to the body on the second pic and the only difference is the front wheel well opening wich I'm leaving because the snake car had a higher opening than Dunn's car ,and a little bit on the back of the rear wheel opening which I haven't decided on yet Chuck

Bart , Yes the oringinal resin body was made to fit the revell chassis out of the box and It didn't look right , the Revell chassis is a 120in wheel base car while all of the cars were 116-118 wheel base. The NHRA rules stated the the funny cars could run a 10% increase in wheelbase through 1974 after that I'm not for sure I'll have to check the rule books . The cars that Revell did are all wrong onthe wheelbase (the 2 Vegas 116 wheelbase and Duster 118 wheel base but the Charger 118-120 wheelbase is correct) Chuck

Hi guys here is Comp Resin Cuda F/C body that I'm reworking to get the car back to 118 in wheelbase. I have also reworked the front windsheild . Hopefully when I get it completed I'll get it resin casted for a more correct body then I'll start on some other bodies Chuck
