29 Hiboy Roadster

[bill-e-boy]

Started with the original release of the Revell 29 Roadster which was lowered as the stock version was just too high IMHO

Front end lowered with flat cross member replacing the original 

Rear lowered by lifting cross member up and using shorter coil overs that I machined up

The centre section of rear cross member raised to clear rear end

Flathead motor used from Revell 32 Tudor c/w flathead front engine mount cross member

Painted in Tamiya X-4 blue with X-14 sky blue interior accents - No clear used

The rest is from the 29 Roadster 

See build up in WIP

You definitely got the stance right. Nice job on the shocks.

Very nice looking model....

Awesome build.

Great looking model.

Although, the more I look at it and at the model I built, the more I realize, how much that windshield needs to be chopped.

Looks great!

Good looking roadster! The correction you made to the stance is so much better than how it comes, they really failed in that area. I really like the color scheme and the hopped up flathead was a great choice. Nice work building new front pipes to hook up with the kits mufflers and tailpipes.

The Colour is perfect!  A great semi-TROG build

[bill-e-boy]

MRM - yup I think you are right

Next time I build one I will wack the windshield a bit

Alexis - to nice for a TROG

thanks all for the positive feedback

The colour really suits your build and the lowering paid off in spades!
