DREAMSCALE CONCEPTS Posted May 6, 2024 Posted May 6, 2024 This kit was a Hobby Lobby purchase that turned out to be a terrible kit to build. I had heard from several other modelers about the flash and part fitting problems which I have encountered also. I had an extra pro street chassis from the AMT pro street GTX, a set of Jays Resin V series drag wheels and an Iceman Collections Roots blown Hemi which I am using in this build! I also made the funny car style cage by hand. This is also another work in progress. Thanks for viewing. 3

That front bumper is killing me with having to trim and sand both parts! Same with the rear bumper too! Once I get them worked out , radiator hoses radiator more detail with the wheels and tires and a fitted hood with a hole for the blower, wires too for the Hemi ! I’m glad you like it so far! 1

This kit needed a roots style blown Hemi sticking out of the engine bay! Thank you for liking it! Gonna make some little changes before it’s completely finished!

This kit wasn’t the greatest in quality, so I decided to use the pro street AMT GTX chassis which had all the suspension parts with it. I got lucky and it fit wheelbase perfect. However, I used the interior tub from the kit and had to cut the trans tunnel out of it so that it would fit the GTX chassis. I’m gonna do a lot more detail work on this one. Thanks for the input!
