1-8 scale 69 camaro pro mod (mike hill's car)
Prostreet replied to comp1839's topic in WIP: Drag Racing Models
Calipers look great nice, Nice machining work. -
I have been working on this here and there when i have some free time, Been mostly doing body work and getting the door and front end lines good. Nothing worth really posting, I had some free time tonight and started on the wheel tubs, I wanted to get these done before i prime and paint the chassis. i have one roughed in and still need to add the back filler panel, I wanna make that part of the tub. They will be painted matte black and the tops will be done in carbon. I added pins to the chassis in 3 spots to make it easier to locate the tubs to the chassis for fitting and final assembly.

Anybody want a Liberty Transmission?

Down for one. -
Here is a picture of mine, Keep in mind this is when it was the 1/4" tubing. The 9/32" tubing is that much bigger, I don't have a current picture of mine now with the 9/32" tubing in place. I know alot of guys try to build to scale off 1:1 dimensions, which is fine and i have done that with anything that i could on my car. If i went with the 5" (5/16") collector it looks out of scale compared to the scale of my body and some other aftermarket parts, Maybe you could offer 3 different sizes on the tree to cover 4" (1/4"),4-1/2" (9/32") and 5" (5/16") ? I don't think in 1/16th scale you would use anything smaller than 4". Hard to say what to do, unless you totally scratch build everything like Dave can and does it's hard to keep everything to scale. This is what a 4" exit pipe looks like.

Scott, Sorry about that. I was doing the window bezel, I misread your post. Right now im running 9/32" tube for my exhaust exit That equals a 4-1/2" pipe in 1:1. I checked the 9/32 tubing in my plastic ruler thing that has all the circle sizes that you can stick tubing through and the styrene tube that is 9/32" actually fits loose in it. So i think you would be able to go right at 9/32" and it would work, Worst case they could be filled down some. I personally can't use the exhaust bezels on this build because of the way i did the exit on my car. That's the best info i can come up with right now, I'm sure Dave will chime in on this also.

Sounds good, really interested to see how this turns out.

Large Rear Hot Rod Tires Needed
Prostreet replied to TedsModeling's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Ted maybe we need to get with TDR to do some of these http://www.mickeythompsontires.com/strip.php?item=ETStreetRadial I was talking to Jim (micronitro) about making me a master in 1/16th scale in either a 275 or 315 drag radial for a project i wanna do, I just haven't had time to start drawing it up with the dimensions for Jim to work off of. Then i was going to try and cast them in resin, i have never done that and not sure i could pull it off.
