W-409

Oh yes, we have lots of cars here. (Well nothing compared to the USA of course, but usually on the Finnish Championchip Events there are about 200 cars and motorbikes). We have pretty much different car categories too, and soon it's the time of European Championchip DragRace event here in Finland... Hope to see lots of ProMods and Top Fuels threre. And oh yes, currently we have about 7 TF Teams here in Finland.

If you can't find them here, I would look from eBay. Right now I can't see any correct decals, but that's just me...

This is cool! Finally there has been built a Model from Modeler.

Mike, those are great! Here are few more.

I would say that keep it as it is right now. Drag Racing Models section is the best section of this forum and it's easiest to find reference, or ask reference for Drag Racing Cars. Same thing with NASCAR, if there's only one General place where to ask reference, those topics can be easy to miss, since there are very much of them. I really like the way it is right now, but just point out, that Drag Racing Models need to be posted into Drag Racing Models section, and NASCAR models into NASCARS section. And those threads can be moved from Under Glass to right sections, if someone still doesn't understand and posts those still in Under Glass? Or is moving topics tricky? I don't know which one I should vote, but this is my opinion. If It Aint Broke, Don't Fix It. EDIT: But if you're gonna do those changes, how about Large Scale Models in the Big Boys section, or Diecast Models? They have still own sections, just like Drag Cars and NASCARS. I think it's more simple when there are seperate Drag Racing and NASCAR sections.

Hope These Help.

Yes, that Barracuda has a Keith Black Hemi with Blower.

Some Finnish Drag Cars what run in Outlaw car category...

I've found three other pictures of that (ugly) car, but nowhere reads, what car is it.... Needs to continue searching in the afternoon.

Very cool Falcon! It doesn't look like "Modified" Diecast. It's so clean that it looks like unmodified. Nice job all over it.

This looks very good so far! Paint is smooth and shiny, color looks very good too. I like those stripes, you did awesome job with them. Vinyl top is just perfect choice for this kind of car.

Thanks for the comments, guys! And thanks for the pics too, they are really useful since I lost all of my reference material when my old computer died. Every reference picture from this and other builds too, are lost. I decided to spray some clear for the body today. After that I can see how it looks and if it's great, I'll add decals but if not, then I don't. The result isn't perfect after paint, so let's see what one clear coat can do.

This is not "Amazing" or "Awesome" anymore... This have to be perfect! I really like the detail, you've done for this build and paintjob is spectacular. I really liked the WIP topic.

Awesome scratchbuilding, Clay! I really enjoy watching this build. Those doors look very good and so does that front body tree too. Can't wait to see the next update.

After some minor body work and sprayed new coat of primer for the body. Today I managed to paint it red. It's not excellent, but I guess it'll look good when decaled, cleared and polished.

Here we go again, Hudson is on all four wheels, after few problems (Not because of Moebius' great kit, just because of Würth spray paints). It looks pretty good, stance etc. I also glued the wheels so that they are bit turned, they just look good like that, I think. And Yes, Engine Is Glued To Chassis, Too.

This might be interesting. I might jump in for this one, if there are some more interested builders too. Does anyone have good drawings for FED frame?

Thanks, Wayne! Very much appreciated. The metal flake looks bit better in person, actually it's pretty good for my eye. In the sunlight it doesn't look right, though. Needs to find some reference photos for the racing version too. My other computer broke down with all of my reference photos from every model car there. So now I need to start looking for them again. I'm going to post few pics soon of the Cobra.

Harry, Modified HotWheels cars belong here, I guess?

Nice build of great kit! Detailing looks super. Chassis is good looking too, paintjob turned out well and so on. Great work. But next time drill those headers out .

Great body, looks good already! You do great job with this one too. Looks like plastic is quite thin compared to scale model kits, or is it just me?

Cool Camaro! We need some more pictures, though. Looks interesting, and nice paint & Detailing.

Is there an engine and great interior & Chassis detail on that Tamiya kit? If so, this would be great kit for me, since this is very beautiful car. You did nice job on yours. Paint turned out well.

Thanks! The battery, I need for the interior is coming now and soon I can continue building the interior too. I actually have some more work done for the engine, but when I do some little "weathering" for the headers, I'll post a picture or two.
