M W Elky Posted March 8, 2024 Posted March 8, 2024 This one is a good old kit bash using the AMT 33 Willy’s the AMT Vega wagon funny car . As for the engine I combined the short block from the Vega with HEMI heads and valve covers from the parts box. The rear wheels came from a AMT modified stock car with the big slicks from AMT’S parts pack . Some of the decals are from slixx and some are from smp . The paint is tamyia satin black . I made the headers from solder and aluminum tubing the velocity stacks are aluminum tubing. It took a little doing to get everything to fit under the narrow Willy’s front end , but all in all the funny car chassis fits really good. Until next time thanks for looking, Mike 5
Ace-Garageguy Posted March 8, 2024 Posted March 8, 2024 I like it. A lot. This could be the dictionary illustration for "mean looking drag car". Looks like somebody stole your driveshaft though. 1

rrb124@sbcglobal.net Posted March 9, 2024 Posted March 9, 2024 Good golly this even looks fast sitting still. Big attitude. Fun to see this. Going to do a Gasser sometime and I hope it looks half this good.
Rattlecan Dan Posted March 13, 2024 Posted March 13, 2024 Not beasty, downright ferocious! Great build.
