maltsr Posted January 5, 2016 Posted January 5, 2016 (edited) This build combines the Revell 1964 Thunderbolt kit with a Jimmy Flintstone resin body. The teardrop was removed from the bonnet (hood) and replaced with styrene and filler. A parts box 289 engine was fitted, along with an aluminium driveshaft and plastic rod for the exhaust aft of the mufflers. Wheels/tyres by Pegasus, and paint is some old Duplicolor rattlecan.

maltsr Posted January 5, 2016 Author Posted January 5, 2016 Pretty slick. But you know what's missing... No it's not, you can just see it at the top of the windscreen in the third photo!
satterwhite78 Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Awesome...I'm a big fan of stock rim/tires but those make it "pop"! Great work
blunc Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 No it's not, you can just see it at the top of the windscreen in the third photo! wait a minute, I don't see an alternator bracket at the top of the windshield... (just kidding) beautiful work.

MGL Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 This turned out great, I've been eying these body's and you may have convinced me to get one.
DeeCee Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 That is SWEET!!! I am not a fan of resin bodies, but this one looks great the way you have done it mate. and love that color too.
Zen Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Looks great! I have one of these on the table now. Curious on how you finished up the rear cargo area behind the rear seat.
Grumpa Posted January 6, 2016 Posted January 6, 2016 Great lookin' "long roof" Paul! I love the mags and the color! Nice!
