Get A Grip! I found an old set of 8th scale Handle Bars in the parts box. I think they will work on the Vette Jet. First I removed all of the old chrome. Next I painted the Bars with Tamiya Silver Leaf and then I painted the Grips Flat Black. I cut the Bars to fit and then glued them on the underside of the Dashboard. Here they are in place.

Motor Madness!!! I started adding more color to the Pod Racer Engines. Then I applied a Black Wash. After it dried I sprayed the Engines with Testors Dullcote. Next I added several Red Fuel Lines. The Engines are almost ready to mount on the Vette Jet. More Coming...

Thanks for the kind words Mike! I am editing the Finished Photos. Hope to have them ready soon...

Beautiful Build! Very Realistic...

Thanks Dave! Glad you like it...

Thanks Bob! I always wondered if the Dr. might be an Alien...

Looks Great! Real Nice Color, Details & Supercharger...

Vertical Thrusters! I'm using 12th scale Corvette Wheels for the Vertical Thrusters. The Wheel on the Right shows it Before and the Wheel on the Left shows it After a Black Wash was applied. Here are all four in place. More Coming...

Great Start Kenn!

Sweet Sounds! I made some photo copies of some small Speaker Decals an enlarged them. The Thirty Speakers are designed to Neutralize the Engine Noise an deliver Cool Music to the passengers. I attached them with 2-Sided Tape. More Coming...

Thanks for the diagnosis Dr.! That explains a lot of things...

Thanks Bob! Glad you enjoyed it. I am planning to take the Finished Photos tomorrow...

I think you're Right!

We've Got Seats! I glued the Door Panels in place and then glued in the Seats too. Turned the Instrument Cluster into a Monitor. Lots of room here for a Great Sound System... Front View. More Coming...

Black, Red and Silver! I added putty and sanded the Panels Smooth. Then I sprayed them with Flat Black Primer. I Masked off the areas that will be Black and Sprayed the rest with Tamiya Silver Leaf. Then I Sprayed the Silver areas with Tamiya Mica Red. Here they are with the Masking Tape removed. I also used Bare Metal Foil on the areas as shown. More Coming...

Nice Trike!

Vette Door Panels! I cut the Door Panels from two 1985 Corvette Interiors. Next I started to fit the Door Panels to the Vette Jet Interior. The front sections needed to be cut quite a bit to fit in place. This photo shows the Front Sections Before and After modifications. I glued Plastic Strips to the bottoms of the Door Panels to add height. More Coming...

Vette Vents! I used 1/4 inch Stripping Tape to do the Black in the Vents. Then I brushed some Testors Dullcote over the Tape. More Coming...

Thanks Dan! I really appreciate it...

Thanks for your comments Joeseph! I think Don was just trying out his friends Flying Sub and made a tricky landing. If Big Daddy had a Flying Sub it would be Black...

Silver and Brass! First I sprayed the Heat Sink with Tamiya Silver Leaf. Then I painted some details with Vallejo Brass Paint. Next I applied a Black Wash to the Detail. More Coming...

I would like to see a 16th scale Cheetah and Ed Roth's Road Agent in 8th Scale!

Love the Wood Grain!

Big Heat Sink! I found this part in the MPC Star Wars Snow Speeder. I am going to use it as a Heat Sink to help dissipate the Heat from the Six Engines. It will be mounted between the two top Engines. I had to cut a little off each end to fit the Vette. I used strips of plastic to fill the gaps on the sides. More Coming...
