gtx6970 Posted August 11 Posted August 11 (edited) Finally have my all time favorite drag car in the case. Added spark plug wiring and fuel injection lines from the tank to the pump. All Tamiya Paints except duplicolor acrylic clear lacquer. Slixx for the decals Rear wheels and tires from the Revell 1967 GTX Swapped the 4spd engine halves with the Dodge version of the kit to make this one a 4spd A satin clear on the kits chrome ft bumper to replicate polished aluminum Blue tinted acetate file folder sheet used for the side glass I made my own window frames using some plastistruc strips This is the 1st one of these kits I've left the front spindles so the wheels were posable, And I like it much better Im really happy with how this one turned out * On a side note The tires / Keystone rims from the Revell 1967 GTX are a near perfect fit for this kit like they were made for it Edited August 12 by gtx6970 8
papajohn97 Posted August 12 Posted August 12 Ooohhhh......very very nice finish on this one Bill. The engine detailing/ plug wires/ fuel lines are A+ as well as the paint/ decaling/ foil work and general construction also all A+. I also really like the paint work you did on the front mags to make them look like more realistic slightly oxidized mag wheels and not the shiny toy-like polished chrome wheels that come with the kit. Looking forward to seeing your build of the S&M Tiger II AWB sedan as well as the Harrop Dodge posted here in the near future. You do beautiful work! 1
M W Elky Posted August 12 Posted August 12 WOW that’s one great looking HEMI those fuel lines are just amazing. A great overall look these kits are already legendary
