W-409

Well, this one is a tough one... Those windows just don't look real somehow, so that's why it could be model. BUT those all louvers look really realistic and those side vents are realistic too, so I say REAL, but it can be wrong also.

It would be great to join in. Is there any deadline, if there is then I can't finish my projects on time. AND if it is allowed, I'd like to join with these two Projects. They are stuck right now, but I'd like to continue them. So I join in with these two, if it's ok. If not, I understand very well, because these are started long time ago and they are started already. But still lots of work ahead.

If I can join in. But I'm very interested anyway.

Here is another picture, which was supposed to be in that earlier post... And here is the Outlaw- Barracuda. http://tapahtumakuvia.kuvat.fi/kuvat/Tapahtumat+2011/FHRA+Defa+Finals+2.-4.9-2011/Saturday/P9033764.AVI Click for the full screen mode.

This is also from Competition, another Volvo from Sweden, 6.7 times with it, but.... Look at the pics.

Then after Outlaw, here are few cars from Competition. Great class. First this Volvo from Sweden. It's with Volvo's engine and big turbo, 1300 hp and burns methanol. It goes 6.8 times!! That Hyundai has Chevy engine with Twinturbo.

After SPET cars, next is coming OUTLAW. It's one of my favorites and it's for too fast Street Cars. Well, 7,50 is a "safety index" in this group. First This Barracuda. It has Keith Black Hemi and best ET. so far is 7.9

And after SG and SC, some SPET cars. This is a class with own index, you can run with almost everything here.

After some Stock and Super Stock cars, next is coming some Super Gas cars, so 9.90 index. And then some Super Comp cars, so 8.90 index.

More S/SS cars!!!

Then Stock / Super Stock- group. One of my favorites! These are both with a Hemi!

Then Street B- This is for Turbocharged 4 cylinder cars. Otherwise same idea as in C/D Street. Yes, it's a Diesel...

More of these. Street C/D Group- heads up racing... This Plymouth Vip has 477" engine with Twinturbo. Best ET was 7,8

Some Drag Race cars!!! These Pictures are taken in FINLAND, but some of those cars aren't finnish. But they are mostly finnish. Pro and Sportsman ET- group. With indexes, mostly Street cars. VW Karmann Ghia. Built in 10 days, can't remember how fast it was...

That frame work looks simply amazing. That rear axle looks really good, nice details and great scratchbuilding on these parts. I like this build very much, can't wait to see more.

Flathead looks much better than the four banger! So keep it. Great work so far with this build, and great to see RatRods which are built nicely and they are realistic.

I think, that when it's layed- then paint primer and after the rear color some polishing and then that text comes out, so it's like polishing the paint off from that spot. Am I correct?

This is going to be really interesting build, as always. That Camaro body looks good when it's not stretched or lowered. That Yenko theme should fit nicely to the Pro Street idea.

I agree. And Monzas too. Well, all H-Bodies could be very welcome, there has been kits from them, but the prices are pretty high today...

This one looks very good so far. Nice to see you back at your bench. Interior looks good and I like the tires and wheels. Color is nice and those stripes fit perfectly. Great job with it so far, can't wait to see more.

Alright... Thinking about tire choice. I've ran out of Fairy Power Spray, which I'm using for stripping the paint, so now the body is waiting for a new bottle of it. Maybe monday I can get one bottle.... Well, rear slicks are something, I got today and they look good. I'm going to fit them inside this body. But front tires are bit tricky. I have three possible choices. Maybe Mickey Thompson Sportsman tires from AMT '70 Super Bee Pro Street, or then Good Year Frontrunner tires. One possible choice could also be those tires on the last picture. Those are installed to Pontiac Firebird FC which needs to be painted again. I'll be using some of those three for this build.

Great job with it, very clean build. I like this color very much and those decals fit nicely to Pickup Willys too. Engine looks great also, and I like the tires and wheels. I like it, keep these coming.

Wow, amazing work again. Great to see that these amazing builds are all Drag Cars. That front axle system looks just super, this is going to be absolutely beautiful. I'm going to get my jaw pieces from the floor now.

More.. No burning rubber... And still one more...

Here it is, Finished, finally. This was originally built by my friend, and it was supposed to be Salt Flat racer. BUT it turned to a Rat Rod, and it was looking like this: Then I got it, and idea was that I would not sand the body, only thing, I did was removing old glue from it. Then I built that little bed from styrene. There's nothing special with it, built just for fun, on a side of more serious projects. Frame is scratchbuilt, propeller shaft is shortened from Monkees Mobile's part, engine is from the parts box, grille is from '32 Ford and it's sectioned. Well, enough talk, here are the picture, and WIP topic can be found here: http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=44400&hl=

This is cool! Color fits perfectly, and that engine looks really great! Amazing job with it, stance is very nice and I like the wheel and tire combo.
