jeff f Posted December 11, 2017 Posted December 11, 2017 (edited) My mind started wandering this weekend as I looked at a can of Tamiya olive drab . I opened a Revell 32 5 window that I had chopped years before , grabbed the hiboy deuce rolling stock and started mock up . I'll 8 stack the 392 hemi and use the lakes exhaust from the AMT phantom Vicky . Thanks looking in , Jeff . Edited December 15, 2017 by jeff f
Sixties Sam Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 Looking good! I like the OD color and wheels. Sam
mod3l Lover Posted December 12, 2017 Posted December 12, 2017 This is all very cool indeed!! But you failed to mention one very important thing! Where did you get those tire decals from? David S.
jeff f Posted December 12, 2017 Author Posted December 12, 2017 Thanks everyone , David the decals are from Slixx . Here is a shot of the injection base in raw form . If it turns your crank build it , Jeff .
jeff f Posted December 12, 2017 Author Posted December 12, 2017 I'm glad I had some AMT vickys , the lakes pipes fit great . Cylinder spacing looks spot on . Thanks Jeff .
espo Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 The body proportions look perfect and the ride height looks spot on. I like the finish on the wheels. Or you going to leave it shiny or go with a flat finish ?
jeff f Posted December 13, 2017 Author Posted December 13, 2017 Today I flared some 3/32 aluminum tubing for the injection stacks . Will add fuel rails and install . You eat an elephant one bite at a time . Thanks everyone , Jeff .
geewhiz Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 Very well done millwork and the overall build is looking great!!!????????
jeff f Posted December 15, 2017 Author Posted December 15, 2017 Today I mixed up a bit of Epabond and glued the injection in place . I tried to be as precise as possible . Thanks Jeff .

misterNNL Posted December 20, 2017 Posted December 20, 2017 Excellent build with all the right proportions and stance. Your color choice is very different and I like that,should stand out on any display table or show case.Thanks for sharing.
jeff f Posted December 21, 2017 Author Posted December 21, 2017 Thank You Dennis and Tom , my stuff mostly heads to my cases . I'm not to good at show quality detailing . Thanks for looking in , Jeff .
geetee66 Posted December 21, 2017 Posted December 21, 2017 Koooooool! I dig the wheels/tyres, as well. That's a good tip for getting the velocity tubes level. How did you flare the ends? With a ball-punch or a wide cone, of some sort? I never show my builds, either. You guys are the only people who see them. And that's good enough for me ?
