  1. sweet! nice paint work.
  2. Nice work,,dig the colors!
  3. Thanks you all,,you guys have great stuff on here also. The guy who inspired this build is Dave Crane,,hes built + raced AA/AFD since the 50's 60' I tried to post a vid of his shop + collection,,but the link didnt work,,but I do have 4 vids of his place. Thanks for looking,,+ Comments. Happy Holidays
  4. Thanks Cobra,,I tried to challenge myself to do something totally different than anything Ive done before. " To boldly go where no tube of glue has gone before" lol. Thanks for the kind words
  5. Id put a 454 w/a 671 Gmc blower on it,,in it. would be a fun little car.
  6. Awsome stuff,,wouldnt mind having this kit myself.
  7. 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
  8. 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!
  9. I want one ! Great build.
  10. Thanks guys,,sorry bout late reply. Heres the finished car,,thanks for the kind words. http://s1327.photobucket.com/user/axlemount112/media/IMG_2174_zps5700ab94.jpg.html?sort=6&o=2
  11. 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
  12. Really cool,,very clean build.
  13. 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
  14. Nice front end work,,,Im sure this will look great!
  15. Great concept,,Ford should have made these,,cool work.
  16. 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!
  17. Hi all, just a recent build of tamiya's Suzuki 1100 katana. I went with a different color than stock,other than that its a stock build. Cheers!
  18. 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
  19. Whoa!! Dig the sheen on the clearcoat,,,nice
  20. Wow,,great stuff there.
  21. Nice job! I watched the movie the other day,"Munsters go home" and this was in a race at end of movie,,w/Herman driving,,great to see this car actually run,must have been a handfull.
