Modlbldr Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 (edited) Just finished this today for the 18th annual 24 Hr build. Widened the rear wheels, lowered the suspension, molded in different taillights, wired the engine, added rare earth magnets to hold the hood in place, altered the kit exhaust and added turned aluminum mufflers. Airbrushed Testors "Colors by Boyds" (remember them?) Purple Pearl for the body and a custom mix of House of Kolor for the frame. A few aftermarket parts (MSD ignition box, Aluminum mufflers). The Rat Fink decal was one that I had in a parts box that I inherited from my buddy, Mike Flynn. A fun night of building and now I have another one for the shelf! If you haven't done one of the 24 Hr builds, you should. They are a blast to see the variety of builds from many different entrants (think we were somewhere between 150-200 this year- most tied in over Zoom) Later- Edited January 30 by Modlbldr Replaced with better photos 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Beautiful looking color and finish and the flames look interesting. Great looking engine and chassis. Like the interior finishes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got back on it at 7:30 and finished at 11:45 AM on Sunday. Makes me wonder what takes me so long on all of may other builds. Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
