I Love 70's Funny Cars!! Hanging out at the track as a kid helping my brother run his C Gas Dragster, I got exposed to the Nitro Funny Car Circus with all the fumes and shakin goin on and have wished ever since to own and drive one of those Plastic Fantastics... till then I build them to scale. The latest is a scratch built 1/10th scale 1973 Baracuda, one of the coolest AA/FCs back in the golden days of drag racing. I am using a 1/10th Parma RC body with a, hard to find, 1/10th Parma blown hemi kit. It's a slow process since free modelling time is so hard to find. I'm fabricating two chassis, front and rear engine layouts using styrene balloon straws. I'm planning on being be able to switch out the body and hemi and have two great models in one. I've sanded down some off road RC tires and found some, not bad looking slotted mags, I'll have to make the front five spoke Cragar mags. The plan is to install an RC set-up so I can create some excellent videos with smoke, fire and sound effects on a scale strip... stay tuned. Sunday... Sunday...SUNDAY!!!
