old-hermit Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 (edited) 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. Complete build pics here. http://public.fotki.com/old-hermits-garage...s/little-mouse/ Edited March 6, 2009 by old-hermit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

old-hermit Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Question.. what did you use for the grille?? And the front spoked wheels..?? 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
