LVZ2881 Posted September 23, 2008 Posted September 23, 2008 THis was his first Busch ride. I believe he drove it for 3 races in 1990. Monogram donor and powerslide decals... Tamiya Pure White and clear for the body and Duplicolor Ford Engine blue enamel for chassis. Pro-Tech Roll bar padding. I also removed the a-pillar bars from the kit body, but didnt add them to the chassis( chassis was already done, guess i'll plan ahead next time ). that'll be the next build. This was a couple firsts for me: 1. Made my own roof rails using Evergreen L channel. I think they turned out pretty good. Really my first time fabbing anything... 2. fabbed my own exhaust. The jury is still out on this, I think next time I'll use 1 size larger tubing ( used 3/32" tube on this), and angle it towards the rear more.... _________________
lizardlust Posted October 1, 2008 Posted October 1, 2008 Neat replica of a little-known Gordon ride, James!! The roof strips came out nicely, as did the scratched exhaust dumps!!
