Awsome stuff,,wouldnt mind having this kit myself. -
Thanks Pappy,,I didnt have the correct front end section for the 429,,so I had to use a nascar belt/pully setup,,and decided to put radiator in as well. Almost as if the guy pulled a 429 boss out of a mustang,,and put it in the dragster. The Car hauler is the AMT Ford C-600 Stake truck,,with a car hauler platform on back. Scratch built tire rack. The x-tra wings on the dragster body are exsaust tips from Revell 1/12h choppers. {circa 1968-74} A friend of mine has a Boss 429 {Real one} on a stand in his garage,gettin it ready to go in a 67 fastback 1:1 car. Milan Dragway soon after. maybe he'll let me drive it? lol {dont think so} Anyways ,,thanks for looking and the kind words,,happy holidays. S

Hi all,,just got back from the NNL #9 in Mtr city area,{ I reside about 7 miles from the show site} anyways,,,it was a great show,,all in all. Some amazing stuff on the contest tables. Heres my little buggy I entered for the tables. It was a AMT bantam blast kit,,but the frame grew a bit in length,,and it grew a few more wings,,and somewhere along the way,,it got an injected Boss 429 tossed in there.instead of the Hemi. So much for convention. At any rate,,I also made a few vids of the show,,so happy building,,and happy holidays!

Got a AMT Bantam Dragster kit recently{ Bantam Blast},,,and wanted to try something different,,,stretched the frame 3",,,added some x-tra wings,,,uummm,,,and a few other things later. Well see what happens. http://s1327.photobucket.com/user/axlemount112/media/IMG_2289_zps7825cad2.jpg.html?sort=6&o=5

Hi all,just finished the 1/16th Garlits 74' car. It turned out ok,had to disassemble frame b4 build{frame was built when I got it} and redo it. Fun kit to have on the shelf thats for sure,cheers. S

Hi all, ,,just getting caught up on a kit from a recent club meet,traded some of my builts for it. For a kit from 1974,,its not too bad.}Not the greatest tooling} It should turn out ok. Well see where it goes from here,,cheers!

Thanx CobraMN,,,it was a 1/2 built gluebomb when I got it for swap @ a NNL show last yr. So,took it all apart,stripped entire thing w/e-z off,,rebuilt from grnd up,,had only the bx pics to look at for reference as I built it. It turned out ok,,better than when I got it. Scratch built stuff: Roll bar,interior,rearend,front frame for mtr+axle area. rotors,,calipers,,,front axle setup are all leftovr parts bx stuff,, headers were a combined deal from leftover prts bx. I didnt want the 1993 year,,traditional" Pro-stock"/ modified" theme,,wanted to dial back the clock a bit on the overall theme of it. Thanks for looking. S
