  6. heres a few quick biulds i did last week as i was off work first was a acura integra the a 92 civic hatch and a 96 civic hatch .

    datsun 510

    I finished this datsun 510 up last night . This kit was a pain to build. Probabaly one of the worst kits ive worked with not much of the kit fit well . windows where in rough shape as you can see. Considering what it was it came out well i guess minus the windsheild .Ii scratch built the throtle bodies and wired up th motor and battery. I also did a tail light swap the tail lights that where in the kit where molded to the rear and you had to paint them on witch i thought would look crappy . So i took some tails from a 68 camaro and cut off one lense and molded them in. let me know what you think sorry if the pics are crappy they were taken from my iphone . somethings wrong with my digital camera
