i got another coat of paint on this afternoon n gunna let it dry up tonite and hopfuly one more coat of yellow and another coat of purple will have it. im gunna do an orange or red pin stripe between the two colors with a toothpick to hid most of the imperfections. if it dont work oh well its a demo car. also im going to order the front bumper tonite if i cant find a good one in my parts bucket and going to make a number plate for the top. if u see anything else i should do please tell me anything to make my cars better im willing to try. heres a couple more pics

Didnt get much done tonite got one coat of paint on. Im going with yellow n purple n doing some flames. Im brushing it on like an actual demo car so its not goin to b any award winner by any means jus an old demo car paint job

hey guys i got a ton more done today. i put my shifter inadn put on the coolant hoses and added seatbelts. i like this project more the more i work on it i also got the body roughed up and added some styrene to the doors. weathered up the roof a little bit dropped the body on and glued. i still have to add some small ready rod thro the frame and body if i can find some small enough stuff if anyone knows where i can get it at let me know please

i built this car for my fiance to haul a demo car i built her. it dont have a whole lot of detail. just somthing fun and easy for me to build for her i couldnt get engine pics because i didnt have good lighting but its got a 302 with dual quads i had to cut special motor mounts to make it fit

Yeah I havnt touched the body really besides sanding off the emblems. Im gunna get to the hobby shop see if they have dimond plate sheet plastic. I plan on roughing the body up a little bit tho

i got a little bit more done. almost done with the interior. i just have to add a shifter and a start button but other than that its close. i put the radiator in and put foam padding around and ratchet straps over the radiator. i am waiting for stuff so i can start on the body. im not bending it up im going to leave it no damaged. if u see anything else ud like me to add let me know

man that makes mine look like ###### lol. i like it alot great job

well i spent most of the day yesterday on the derby car. i added body mount bolts and wired up my gauges. an dfinaly finnished my motor all except for wireing up my starter. its my first time doing wiring to anything and its kinda frustrating lol. i think everything turned out pretty good. heres the motor all wired up before instalation heres the cage installed still have to put in the seat and steering wheel its coming along nicely tho when i installed the cage i installed it to far forward and the body wouldnt fit down over the chassis. so i had to cut out the cowl pannel. it dont look to bad with the hood instlalled i think im just going to leave it the way it is. i dont have any pics yet but ill get them asap sorry for the blurry pics. there from my phone

alrite i fixed the chin around the fuel tank and used a strap instead. i ran the fuel line up to the firewall and put my battery box in. the cage is installed also. im letting thigs set up and dry for a lil bit. ill post pics tomaro after i run the wires from my gauges to the battery. i might run into town and get a distributor at the hobby shop so i can continue on the motor.

I was debating on the gas tank. I mite make a ratchet strap and put it around the tank instead. I agree about the springs also. Ill fix that when I get bk to it. I havnt put this much detail into a car before so its alot of trial and error lol. Ill keep u posted for sure

I wish I knew now wat I did then when I built this kit. I cant wait to c how urs turns out

well since im on vacation i got a lil bit done today. i got some padding on the cage and a gauge cluster with switches and the fuel cell mounted. i even tries to run brake lines, they turned out okay for my first time. if anyone has any imput let me know ill post some pics up im still waiting on wire so i can wire up the gauge pod and run fuel line and battery cables im kinda stuck at this point, i might try to find small mall screws to make new body mounts today also

It sure looks pretty in the sunlight. Nice work

I like that. Its def very different

heres all my cars on the kitchen table before the move. i have yet to see if they all made it. i hate moving models

so i got home from work today n my demo car had been dropped it didnt do much but break the front suspension off and a door pannel and the rear shocks. beings i was going to reinforce the rearend i just pulled it out and scratch built to quick shocks up and threw some i beams on the rearend for suport. i also got the cage test fitted and made sure everything would fit and took some pics. i also made a piece for the floor because the interior tub wasnt usable and mocked it up to the firewall and got everything where i want it to be i may have more photos up tonight and some progress done since im finaly all moved in lol

That thing is beautiful. I love seeing nascar trucks I mite have to build one sumday

I think im going to leave it fresh I have one bent up already n I kinda dig the fresh look

Looks great ill b watching this for sure

thank you guys. the demo car is actualy a 67 camaro i got from a friend after he destroyed it lol. i was just messin around and threw it together.

ahh anywhere from 7 to 3 years ago they were built i havnt put one together in probably about 3 years. some of them cars were built when i was probably 13 lol. and thank you for the compliments

i built all of these a long time ago. none have to much detail mostly box stock and some have engine swaps and stuff. all of them were done when i was a kid. im just getting back into things and plan on getting more skilled and detailed
