blue504life Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 hey everyone this is my first project thread and first real model (my other stuff is R/C) (all pics will be replaced with better ones tomorrow) basically ill be starting with a AMT "RIDES" 65 Galaxie the idea was simple build a galaxie to resemble my uncles real one so i started by trying to figure out how to add a simple 302 under the hood had to cut part of the trans tunnel out and lower the rear transmission mounts uncles has chopped pipes so i did that too then found a motor from something else i had laying around 5.0 from a 93 cobra kit i believe that looks good, but really isn't enough motor for this tank looked at all the other kits i have laying around to find a better motor and found a Revell 07 GT500 kit and built the motor no paint for now so thats where i am now, not really sure how to finish the mounting of what ever motor i use, suggestions? thanks blue504life (Shane) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mustang3.8 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Nice start, Shane. You build model car bodies for XMODS chassis? I have a custom '69 Chevelle body mounted on an XMODS EVO chassis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue504life Posted October 6, 2009 Author Share Posted October 6, 2009 (edited) thanks guys mustang- i have so many bodies for the evo chassis (both car and truck) the list would look like a paragraph. ranging from a 1970 BOSS 429 to a VW new beetle for cars, trucks range from a 94 lightning to a half-track vizio- the GT500 5.4 with out the charger? must look kinda weird Edited October 6, 2009 by blue504life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
