gtx6970 Posted September 4 Posted September 4 (edited) Finally done and in the case The Butch Leal SS kit was used for both builds Kit decals for the Butch Leal car. SLIXX for the Doc Burgess Jenkins driven car The Burgess car was converted to an auto. .Otherwise both cars are box stock Tamiya orange for the Leal car Tamiya pure white for the Burgess car. Im REALLLLLY liking these Mobieus kits overall. Absolutely no issues during the build. Only exception was I had to chamfer the edge of the rear glass to get it to sit flush Update/Edit Since my post. I was reviewing my reference photos and realized the Leal car had hood pins, The Burgess car did not The Burgess car had the fancy trim panel on the rear between the taillights whereas the Leal can did not. So they are not done I guess And yes, I used the wrong ft wheels on the Burgess car. I'm afraid that can't be changed without causing damage. So I'll have to live with that mistake Edited September 4 by gtx6970 11

Brutalform Posted September 5 Posted September 5 Most excellent builds. You did both cars justice. From some pics I’ve seen, the Black Arrow also had two rear bumper guards as well. I wouldn’t worry about the front wheels, as many racers were constantly changing wheels, tires, etc. But I understand that you are going for the look the car had in its day. Very nice job on your builds,
stavanzer Posted September 13 Posted September 13 Tasty Pair of Plymouths! You really nailed the look of 'em! Good Show.
