A.J Foyt Laguna

I built this one as a quick slammer. I do not like the chassis in these kits, but they were what they were. They work good for a model like this. Had to modify the chassis a little to get the stance I wanted. I was going for the outward look.

This model started out as an old MPC Cannonball Run model I built about 18 years ago as a DW Gatoraid car. I wanted to save my new Model King Lagunas for more detailed projects. I striped it and went over the body. I filled in the door seams and nose seam. 86ed the overdone kit front bumper and made my own out of Evergreen strips. The decals came from the model King Laguna. I used PPG Automotive "Ford Poppy Red" base and cleard with PPG Global Automotive Urethane Clear. All shot with a gun. I had fun with this model.

Thanks guys. I had alot of fun with this model. It really was not hard to make this kit look just a little bit better. The color in the pics does not look right. It is a little more orange, but I am sure you guys know what Ford Poppy Red looks like.
