The engine is a TX3 Customs Ford small block with a Holley EFI intake.I will probably scratchbuild a Makers Garage front lip for the front end and maybe do a single turbo set up on the engine,but not sure yet. Awesome foxbody, love the stance! 3

Modlbldr Posted June 10 Posted June 10 (edited) Latest mock up of my 70 Firebird project. Changed the tires to something more period correct. Body painted Testors Fathom Green. Edited June 10 by Modlbldr 8
Vessey Posted June 10 Posted June 10 I don't plan to start on this project this year, but I couldn't resist testing it out. This will be a Cosworth DFV powered Lotus Seven hot rod. 4
FoMoCo66 Posted June 13 Posted June 13 Revell 32 tudor from the group build that never got finished. Chopped, bobbed, lowered, roll pan, +. The stance is perfect in my mind, now I just need a 60s hot rod color for it, any recommendations (may not listen but imput will tilt the scale). 7

Russell C Posted June 14 Posted June 14 Looks like Mark Gustavson of the GSL contests had uploaded old contest photos to a new or different account - here's my Cobra "Berlinetta" coupe from the GSL display table circa 1993 ( https://public.fotki.com/GSL-Model-Car-Championship/gsl-xiv-1993/gsl-xiv1993/ ) with its aluminum sheet hood, shortened Porsche 911 roof, Herb Deeks photoetch Borani wheels, and fully detailed Hasagawa Jaguar V12 engine. Aim was to 'Italian-ize' the Monogram 25th scale 427 Cobra that Italian hotrodder Carollo Shelbyani would have build back in the day. Tragedy is, this is all the further my project ever got. One of these days, just like all the other stack of unfinished projects, I out to get it done. 7
Paul Payne Posted Sunday at 07:16 PM Posted Sunday at 07:16 PM I'm starting a belly tanker- trying to figure out the exhaust- should be an interesting challenge! 7
stitchdup Posted Sunday at 08:31 PM Posted Sunday at 08:31 PM hoping to finish this over the next couple of days. everything is printed from files by nitrolab3d or the parts are available from blackbox to fit the revell kit. this is 1/24 scale 5

The Ardun exhaust is unique that the ports exit straight down. Might need a creative frame design around the engine. Hope to see more of your build. Thanks. 1
Paul Payne Posted Sunday at 11:42 PM Posted Sunday at 11:42 PM John, I think I can make the frame work, but lining up the exit holes in the body, and shoehorning the engine with the exhausts on the engine-maybe tipping the engine to introduce the exhaust on one side, then twisting the opposite exhausts down into place until they poke through the body- still trying to mentally engineer it. Follow my build in WIP number 6 in the stash bash.
