Little Mouse

Just thought I'd post a couple of pics of my latest project while I'm waiting for decent weather so I can paint it.

1/8 scale resin Topolino body and Chevy 409 engine with highly modified Exterminator frame.

Still have a few odds and ends to finish along with paint.

The grill is from the track nose in a Lindberg "Custom T" kit. It can also be found in the new repop of the Canary T.

I used the frame & front suspension (both highly modified) including the wheels from the Lindy Exterminator dragster kit.
