m3m Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Just finished this up, my first top fuel. I just wanted to build one to see what they are like, and now i will be building more for sure, but with more details. I added some stuff to the engine, 16 injector lines, blower bag, hold downs, plug wires, fuel lines. Not exactly correct, but i don't care. I am going to redo some things on it. Thanks for looking and any comments!
george 53 Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Looks good to me Jer. I think it has just enough detail. I like it.
RJWood Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 This looks great! I would never know it was the first top fuel dragster you have done. Nice engine detail, Paint, and decal application. I hope it was a fun build, that way you will want to build more.
Dragline Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Like my builds. Not over the top on detail, but crisp. Crisp is a word that is excellent for clean builds with nice detail and not that "OMG I didn't sleep or eat for weeks" kinda nutjob build. Very nice bro. Dragline PS: A couple of MY builds to grace Drag Racing very soon.....
pntastar69 Posted January 26, 2009 Posted January 26, 2009 Looks great. I went a little overboard w/the detail
67muscle Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 Engine looks sweet, what did you use for the lines? They look like cable?
Peter Lombardo Posted January 27, 2009 Posted January 27, 2009 (edited) I am very impressed that this is your first Top Fuel rig. Very well done...super clean and nicely detailed. You must be very happy with it....my only guestion is: Is there enough room on your display shelf???...this thing looks about a mile long. Edited January 27, 2009 by Peter Lombardo
m3m Posted January 27, 2009 Author Posted January 27, 2009 Thanks for the comments guys. The fuel lines are wire from the craft store. Yea, it is long, but not as bad as the 18 wheelers!
3men2s Posted March 12, 2009 Posted March 12, 2009 I DID ONE LAST YEAR, AND I CAN REALLY NOW APPRECIATE ALL THE WORK YOU DID IN THIS ONE....LOOKS AHSOME I SAW THIS CAR RUN DOWN HERE IN FLORIDA AND GOT TO MEET ONE OF MY FAVORITES, DARREL GWING, SORRY IF I MIST SPELLED HIS NAME. EVEN DO HE'S STUCK TO THAT WHEEL CHAIR, YOU CAN SEE IN HIS EYES THE PASSION FOR THIS TOP FUELLERS....
PlasticWagens Posted June 8, 2009 Posted June 8, 2009 As already said, great build. I am not a Mopar guy by any stretch, but this is my favorite Top Fuel dragster of all time.
1320wayne Posted June 10, 2009 Posted June 10, 2009 Excellent work, Jeryd. The profile looks great and the engine detail is top notch.
