    Really nice,,ironic,,this is the one Im workin on right now,, question: Did you use the kit supplied rear tires? The ones in my kit look a bit small for it.

    lol,,racing the runways,,theres a story behind that headlight. The angle it points in is the exact angle that the original fairing pointed,,so it kindof transitioned that way. I guess the rider wanted to dodge all the insects when night racing,,sortof like a 150MPH bug light. And to avoid being a landing point for planes at the airport,,lol https://www.scalemates.com/kits/revell-h-1236-honda-drag-custom-bike--1160479 the headlight actually is supposed to be in the front portion of fairing as a flip up/down hideaway style,,so I just put in in the triple clamps of forks

    So true for me also,,I try to detail rally wheels,,and theres a trick to it for sure to make them look good. Wish I had a lifetime supply of SS Cragars

    Thanks you all,,I would like to do more trucks,,I do have the Tyrone Malone drag truck to do soon,,so well see what that entails. I was looking at the box art/pics,,the paint job will surely be a challenge thats for sure. Looks like a fun one to do though.Thanks again,,,,S

    Hi all,,hope alls well for ya during this madness we see around us everyday,,I guess we all get more time to build during this,,the plus side I guess. So,,dug this out a few weeks ago,,Revells Street burner series 70' Superbird. Painted with Testors quikdry rattle can,,,some minor wiring/plumblng,,added a hood scoop{it looked kindof neat when I mocked it up} Hand painted all else. Funny though,,there was no Rdrunner cartoon decal for the side rear wing spars/supports,,maybe a licensing thingee. Anyways,,stay safe,,and enjoy whatever building you do get a chance to do.

    Thanks guys,,I got this at Ollies for 20$,,new,,and Id never done a truck model like this.

    Howdy builders,,this is Lindbergs large scale Fiat Dragster,,with a few changes,,used RC tires for back,,added a radiator from the MPC 1/12 Cobra kit,, extended height of intake scoop,,used note book liner for windshield,,used a large scale trike Revell seat,,,added a fuel tank in back,,and some x-tra wiring. Kit went together well,,and it turned out ok for the shelf display. Be safe out there! https://www.flickr.com/photos/153516536@N08/49712044506/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/153516536@N08/49712046201/in/photostream/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/153516536@N08/49712370742/in/photostream/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/153516536@N08/49712372942/in/photostream/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/153516536@N08/49712374157/in/photostream/
