LODI3QTR Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) I built this as a street driven weekend drag car. It has a glass fuel bowl filter like a stock car would have, with cheater slicks, 4 speed stick with linkage. It also has metal springs & brake lines, gas filler door that opens and closes. The bumpers were cut to replicate the aluminum panels on the front and rear bumpers, the grill was also cut open to replicate the real grill then sent out and re chromed. Engine compartment was completely detailed with wrapped wiring and paint.+ + + Edited May 18, 2018 by LODI3QTR Ad picture

Lizard Racing Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 Just amazing!! Your attention to detail is outstanding. I like the subject of a street-driven racer. Did you get the cheater slicks fit the chassis OK?

espo Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 What can I say that hasn't already been said. All of the details you did on this build are just so realistic looking. I like the subject and I really like how you have presented it.
