1/16 Scale Army Vega Funny Car - Finished 10/14/2018
Nitrozilla replied to Mooneyzs's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Chris, I am thrilled to see you putting the window in the hatch. That blew me away while watching the video. Necessity is the mother of invention indeed. -
One of my faves and certainly one of Revell's best models. You did a nice job. Can't wait to see the chassis.

57 Chevy fuel coupe wip Finished 1-9-14
Nitrozilla replied to cobraman's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Um, Ray, this doesn't look anything like the Funny Car I had in mind. You're going to need to make a lot of changes to get it to look more like what I thought it was going to be. Or, you can keep blowing my mind with your vision. Either way, I'm good. -

What a natural subject for a funny! Awesome Ray. I'll be watching. -
Steve, do not sweat the headers. I didn't like the ones that came with the kit and I didn't grasp the odd ones either so before attempting them I decided to make my own. Took me a few days using solder and still had to tweak them. There are still issues, but they are good enough for the girls John goes with. Man, I have GOT to get back on that build........

Beautiful Chuck. Think I'll order that when the Charlie Allen set is ready.

Decals avail - Charlie Allen and/or Gene Snow 1968 cars ?

YES !!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) Thank you Chuck. -
Wheelstanders , who was first ?
Nitrozilla replied to Greg Myers's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Little Red Wagon was first. It started out as a serious idea. The idea was to get as much traction on the rear axle as possible. When they dropped a fuel injected motor in there, on the first test runs they couldn't keep the front end on the ground. So that makes John right. Ray, I got no problem believing you were first, but unless you've got pictures to prove it, well .......... -
Showboat Redux / Quarter Master...Update 11/23/13
Nitrozilla replied to Nitrozilla's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Hi All. I apologize for the major delay in progress. My main focus recently has been my battle with the Veteran's Administration over my disability appeal. I can't believe that an agency whose main focus is to provide assistance to Veterans with disabilities is causing me more grief than relieving it. I have contacted my local Congresswoman's office, Dina Titus, in hopes of getting help to resolve my issues. Hopefully soon I will be able to get back on this project that I am enjoying so much. I just can't wrap my head around the build's issues while I have something so stressful going on. Thanks for letting me rant. Be back as soon as I can. -
Way cool Brett. However, if you start building aircraft from "Planes", you're gonna lose me.

Nitrozilla replied to Mooneyzs's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
I dunno Chris. I'm just not feeling it. Maybe it's time to shelve this thing and start on a 1/32 SnapTite or sumthin' that has REAL potential........... LOL. Sorry, sometimes I can't contain my silly side. I freaked when I saw the engine in the chassis. Makes it all worthwhile. Keep rockin' this ride man. Righteous!!!!!! -
One of my all time faves. Seems to be a run on AWB's on the board these days.
-
Wow everybody. That was an impressive response. I've been a member here for 3 years and those are most of the Drag cars I've done since joining. The oldest as you may be able to tell, is the Chi-Town Hustler, as I was using my cell phone for the pics. BTW, the Challenger body is going to be replaced (accidental sun damage from sitting near a window), with a topless Flying Dutchman Charger. Happy Thanksgiving to all and I hope to have more done on the Quarter Master before Christmas. lol

And then some more.......

Thought I'd share some stuff that some of the newcomers haven't seen. Also, you old guys might enjoy them again as well. Hope you like them.

Welcome. Nice way to introduce yourself John. Keep 'em coming.

anyone scratch build a pr of funny car wings?
Nitrozilla replied to booboo60's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Here's a phantom Jungle Jim car I did a while back. All scratch using plastic for the canard and aluminum tubing for braces. I inserted wire pins in the chassis to mount the braces. -

Doesn't hurt to have a couple of Masters hit it with a stamp of approval. Thanx -
