Sox and. Martin Cuda 1/24

[dragmodels44]

Hey guys, just started another Sox and Martin Cuda...in 1/24. ( I know there's so many builds of this car. I'm going to make these as detailed as I can, along with the Prudohmme Monza. I knew if I did the 1/24 scale I'd have to scratch build the scoop, but I wanted to give it a try. After 2 days using sheet plastic I'm happy with the results. I also filled in the side fins (gills) and side marker lights and removed the trim moldings at the bottom and molded in hood pins. I ordered photo etched and resin for the Cuda and Monza. Here's the first pics.

Very interesting! I'll be watching this.

Don't forget to paint the engine Ford Engine Blue.

Thanks Snake! Just got back home from a Jeep Jamboree trip in MO. HOPEFULLY I'll have all the work done on the hood and I will start paint.

Hey guys, wanted to share an update on the Sox&Martin 1/24 Cuda. Finally got the hood/scoop right and got the first white coats on the body, not without a lot of redoing! I removed the molded in windshield water bottle and battery and filled them in with sheet plastic. I'm going to finish the white, then add the blue, then the red! I also received all my resin carbs and manifold and photo etched hardware.

Here's an update, finally got the colors done, not without problems though! I was removing the tape after the blue, and dropped it on the roof, nicking it !!!!!! So... back to the paint booth, but I got it done.
