SNOW BLAST: an electric racing snowmobile scratchbuilt from... a telephone!

[Claude Thibodeau]

Hi!

Lately, I was looking at a wireless home phone that gave up the ghost... and it dawned on me that I could transform it into a snowmobile. Cold season  is coming, so...

Removed the unwanted parts, threw in spoons for skis, and scratchbuilt the track, suspensions, handlebars, seat, floorboard, bumpers, etc. Tamya brilliant orange + custom mix acrylic for the seat + rubber black for the track and Revell's spray chrome for the rest. Parts box leftover decals. 

Hours of fun with styrene!

This is so awesome! I love the color scheme and general creativity. The spoon-skis and phone body are so well disguised, you'd never guess their origins!

Being from Arizona, I don't know what that is.  🤪  That's very cool, fun project.  I have an old bathroom scale that could look like a Rolls......
