bisc63 Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 While the engineering is amazing, it's the insanely beautiful paint colors and quality that impress me the most! Outstanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like it ... a lot! Thanks my friend for the shout out and the gentle shove. I guess I need to put some of that knowledge to use and finish something, I have an AMT Studebaker and I know how to use it. Hi Steve! Happy you like it. You were my "first customer" to satisfy, so I'm glad it meets your expectations. Rest assured that I did not meant to give a shove, as gentle as it could be. I'm sincerely happy to rely upon the rule book you've kindly sent me.. It will avoid me having a true salt pilgrim looking at one of my build someday and say" You know this thing would not pass inspection?". If such a thing should happen with one of my previous salt cars... at least I'll be able to acknowledge and discuss the specific reasons why LOL!

I must say that it looks "compact", and believe me, getting it all to fit inside the rather short wheelbase VW van was a challenge. Not a milimiter was lost...

89AKurt Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 That would take more balls than a bowling alley to drive! Love the creativity. I have an Allison Salt Flat project sitting on the shelf of doom, so I'm looking at your details for the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bugatti Fan Posted July 4, 2023 Share Posted July 4, 2023 Superb exercise in creativity! Out of curiosity, where did the Allison engine originate from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Wolf Posted July 10, 2023 Share Posted July 10, 2023 What everyone else said, times a dozen! Very cool outside the box - van thinking. It's good knowing I'm not crazy, that others, or you in this case, think much like I do. I've got the same van kit, in planning a mid-engine, funny car like drag racing machine. But, thanks to you, I now have some aerodynamic body modification ideas for it. To me, these wild, endless possibilities, are what I like the most about model building.

Sectioning the body rather than chopping the top really makes the look of the car. And of course the motor-vation is a great way to fill up the inside. LSR cars are probably my favorite racers and this is really a hit. Thank you Scott! You are right: the packaging of the powertrain was quite a challenge...
