Fuel Coupe

Other than a few small details Im calling this one done. Its been a fun ride....

Ive been looking at that Gabriel. Thanks for the input, I'll try and ream them a bit as I thought they were a but thick too...

Thanks guys. I always like feedback, Good Bad or other.

6 coats of clear later...

good luck with MAS. He has stopped writing me all together. He has most everything you are looking for. you can get some stuff from arrow head through eBay. yes they will take a month but I have bought from them twice that way and have received my order. You can also try Pro tech who is a member here as well as Scale Dreams who is also a member here... Model Car Garage is another option..

the best epoxy I have found is at Hobby Lobby. its a five minute type and It works great for me. I mix it a bit "hot" and find that works best....

Very nice build. One of my all time favorite sling shot dragsters. Good luck ordering anything from MAS. I don't think he's doing much mail order anymore. I have been trying for a couple of months now. we corresponded a few times early on but now He's not even returning emails to me... He has by far some of the nicest parts out there too....

Not a whole lot of responses in the last few updates so guys, this will probably be the last update as I don't want to waste bandwidth on here. Here it is in House of Color Kandy Apple Red. No clear yet, I have to put the decals on it and then clear it.. Thanks for letting me post these up...

My good friend and Board member Matt LeBlanc, Lester (not a member), my son and Myself all took a trip to a little shop a few miles from me. Ive gotten one other pile of goods out of this place a few months ago but wasn't actually able to go so Matt brought a stack of goodies to me. Look further back in this thread if interested. I was able to go yesterday an this was the find. the top 2 are my sons and he worked the deal on them himself. very shrewd business man, my son The rest are mine... Heres my weeks score the 2 Johan kits and the gene snow charger came from eBay this week...

There are 2 listings on Slixx for Goeske's funny car. They are upcoming sheets listed here

Try Kevin at Whoopie Kat Decals He might be able to custom print you a set...

Richard I would LOVE to see some pics of the car you guys are working on. I build 1:1's too and any fabrication pis would be great Thanks again...

Thanks for the help Andy. They definately have one on their site. I'll see what I can do. in the meantime any other leads would be greatly appreciated...
