PatW Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 One that's been on the shelf for a while, a car that we don't see here in the UK. Quite a few parts, interesting and satisfying build. I couldn't find any Hoosier tyre decals in the UK, so did a search on Google for the real sprint car and found that they used Yellow Goodyear Eagles. Searched my decal box of spares and found two for the rears. One thing I couldn't quite understand was that all the large major parts were chromed, that had to be painted, so out with the oven cleaner and hey presto!
espo Posted July 21, 2017 Posted July 21, 2017 Very realistic looking. All the sponsor decals are hard to do on the body and wing. Wing as in the top mounted Air Foil not a fender. You got the color on the headers perfectly.
PatW Posted July 21, 2017 Author Posted July 21, 2017 Thanks David, yes I did a bit of Googling to get things the right colour! I love decals! If I can't buy them in the UK I print them!
PatW Posted July 22, 2017 Author Posted July 22, 2017 Thanks guys, yes very satisfying, a few difficult fitting parts, but not because of the parts but the general tight spaces. The top wing was odd as you had to lay the wing on the table and put the car upside down,on top!
Jmaracing Posted July 24, 2017 Posted July 24, 2017 awesome looking sprint car. You did a great job!!
