Modlbldr Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 Mike- The changes are small but looking good. What is that windshield frame from? That kit is a pretty big block of resin, if I'm not mistaken. My buddy had one of the Flintstone Studes that he actually took the time to sand down and open the hood. Must have taken him a week. LOL What color or other mods do you have planned? Later- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torinobradley Posted February 1, 2010 Share Posted February 1, 2010 I have this kit as well. The real car is owned by Michael Anthony, bassist for Van Halen! It was built by Foose and Boyd. It looks great with those wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletch Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 Those changes make a world of difference in the looks of that kit. My wife wanted that kit several years ago, she was so disappointed with it she boxed it up and hasn't touched it since. The Pegasus wheels look fantastic sitting next to the body as does the Smoothster windshield posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernard Kron Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 The wheels amd windshield make for a great silhouette. Given the block 'o resin nature of this Flintstone kit I'm assuming its a curbside. What are your plans for the interior and front suspension details?

I'm going to use the kit's interior,and I have modified the the front suspension to get it to sit really low. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedster Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Love the wheels! Where did they come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torinobradley Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I think it was me that gave you that kit. Great start, Mikey. I believe it was you that sent me this one. Many thanks! Now, I don't know which way to go with it. Do I build it as the real one or do a custom job. I have some big an dlittle wires from Pegasus that I want to put on a little roadster so might go that direction. This one is turning out great!
