Count me in as one that would like to learn more. I do a little scratch building myself and always look forward to learning more to improve my building skills.

this Build is looking great!! I really like the detail that you have done to it so far. What did you use for the gauges on the dash they look good.

Wow! She turned out beautiful. Love this car the color looks great. Very clean. Great work!!

John.... Thanks buddy you are awesome! Can't tell you how much I appreciate it. I am in no hurry since I won't be getting to build for a little while. When is the Show in Phoenix that you will be going to. Will have to make it out to it myself. Would like to meet you and see your build in person. Another option I just thought of so you don't have to send them to me is if you have a scanner and can scan them. I can give you my email addy. But like I said I can wait for the show in Phoenix. really appreciate your willingness to help me out. Thank You

Looking good, so cool to have them all lined up like that. I take it you are a big Camaro fan One of my best friend's fiance, she is a huge camaro freak and I think owns just about every camaro diecast out there...lol

Ok So I have been working little more on this project the past few days, getting the body close to being completed. I was able to get all of the glass installed as well as the head lights and tail lights. The only thing I really have left with the body is paint the mirrors and as well black out the grill, which I hope to get to the grill today and since its raining here today, I won't be able to paint the mirrors. Here are a few more pics of the body.....

Hey Brett thanks for the advice, I will get on their website and see if I can back order those issues. I appreciate the info

Hey John, I need to ask you another question Were did you find the reference pictures for this dragster. I have been doing some research on the internet and really can't find any good pictures for the detail. I have been looking for some old drag racing books at some local book stores and Amazon. On Amazon I ran across one called Fuel and Guts and it has the Bebee and Mulligan dragster on the cover. Just not sure if it has some good pics there for reference or not. I am hoping that I can find it locally just so I can flip thru the book and check it out before I buy it. If you don't mind letting me know I'd appreciate it. I have one of these kits that I am planning on building sometime in the future after I clear some builds off my "kits I need to finish" list thanks again John for all of your help, it is much appreciated.

Great work on that chassis.... that thing looks great.

This build looks great. so clean and nice detail. Engine looks fantastic. I can't wait to see more of this project.

That is a very good price for sure.

This Looks Great!!

Great Tip, thanks for sharing

That looks awesome on your sprint car. Great job, Looks like the real thing

Zukiholic....Very Cool Build!!

Bob this Looks Fantastic....She is Beautiful. Great job on this kit, It turned out very nice

Mike that Engine is looking good. Keep up the great work.

thanks Mike.... Nopt this is the first time chopping this kit.....I haven't quite got to the window frame yet but was planning on cutting the same ammount out of it as I did for the roof to make it fit and then I will be shaving the glass down to fit properly. I don't think it should be too much of a pain but I guess I will see huh Samurai.... When I get to that point of working the window I will take pictures and post them so you can see how I did it. But basically I will cut a section out of the window frame then glue it back together and then from there I will work on shortening the actual window by marking and then will trim it down by scribing the bottom side of the window close to where I want it then to get the final fit, I will sand it down the rest of the way with a fine sandpaper or sanding stick. Hopefully this makes sense.

Wow another Beautiful model you have there John. As always the detail looks great. What is the material that you used for the parachute?? I have been trying to figure out what is best to use for them. Thanks

Alright Who stole the Napa hat and put it in the luggage rack?? am I the only one that has noticed that so far haha. Very Cool Stance on the 1:1 by the way. Looks good

This is looking great. Keep up the great work on this one.

This is looking great. Love the scratch build door panels. You work amazes me.

This looks great so far. I can't wait to see the progress on this. I know it will look outstanding with all the detail you will put in to it. From what I can see with a few of the other parts in the picture....the detail looks amazing so far

this is looking great so far. Keep up the good work and Keep adding pics for us to see.
