30 A Bone Banger

[bill-e-boy]

Monogram 30 A coupe I picked up earlier this year as part of an estate clear out. The kit dates back to 70 and was complete thankfully.

So the theme of the build was to make an old skool A-Bone banger drag car as used back in the day. Motor to have an Ardun OHV conversion with blower which was newly installed which required some panel work on the fire wall to fit the huge head and zoomies. The motor is based on a Revell A banger.

Paint is ancient LMG metallic blue with Tamiya lacquer clear. Running gear is Tamiya red.

Lots of little details from the parts box and some scratch built but I wont go into details here as it is all covered on the WIP thread

Build thread here - 

 

 As mentioned in the build thread it is part of an on line build thread with a club down here in NZ. I have had a ball belting out a kit in record time as it usually takes me 12 months or so to get build done.

Enjoy

Thanks for looking

Fine looking little Hot Rod Bill.  It's got that classic look and yeah, this would be a driver for sure.  Nicely done.

A very humble thank you to all for the kind words.

It is quick simple builds like this that turn out OK that keeps the flame going. 

And I dare to be different sometimes.

Thanks
