tyrone Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks for the comments fellas I really appreciate it, well it was a tough decision but I decided to go with Red, I really like the blue also but red it is I'll let this dry for a day or so and get started applying the Yenko stripes, meanwhile I'll try to get the interior details wrapped up thanks for looking and comments welcome.
crowe-t Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 The red looks great! What paint did you use?
tyrone Posted February 21, 2011 Author Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks guys the paint is Detail Master Guards Red...
crowe-t Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Thanks guys the paint is Detail Master Guards Red... Where do you get Detail Master paint? Is it Lacquer?
tyrone Posted February 22, 2011 Author Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the comments fellas, I said I would wait a couple of days for the paint to dry but when I got home today it was good and dry so I put the decals on I think it turned out o.k, once it's all together it should be nice and snug where there are gaps now on the front end, doors etc.. DWR there are no mounts on the front end, the headers are what's keeping it together I'll try and get you a pic of it tomorrow, crowe t.the paint is an enamel paint I pick up from the local hobby shop, thanks for looking and comments welcome.

Dragracer Posted February 22, 2011 Posted February 22, 2011 The decals look good Tyrone,another one of my favorites now. Are you going to put a grille or anything on it up front?
tyrone Posted February 26, 2011 Author Posted February 26, 2011 what's up fellas, I've done a little bit to this one tonight,I painted the front grille by hand, still need to fix a few spots, I got the body wet sanded and ready for clear, maybe tomorrow, I added nut and bolt details to the rear wing and got the dzus fasteners on, thanks for looking and comments welcome.
Dragracer Posted February 26, 2011 Posted February 26, 2011 Looks beautiful Tyrone!, great paint job on the grille! Can you tell us whats next or are you going to surprise us?
tyrone Posted February 28, 2011 Author Posted February 28, 2011 What's up fellas, I got a little bit of progress in on this one tonight. It was 85 degrees today so I got some clear coat on it today, I also got the nos bottles amd lines ran in the car, I also got the chute cables, and handle, I also got the net on the wheelie bars, and padding on the roll bars done, more updates soon, thanks for looking and comments welcome....
John Pol Posted March 1, 2011 Posted March 1, 2011 Real nice as always Tyrone your the king of pro mods in my eyes.What do use for the padding on your rollbar and what do use to make your wheels on your wheeliebars. Can`t wait to see your next project. John Pol
tyrone Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the comments fellas John Pol the roll bar padding is from pro tech, the wheelie bar wheels are from the 55/57 kits, I cut them off and then re-use them after I make the bars, A few updates, I got all the glasses in except for the doors I detailed the rear tailights, first I used bmf around the whole tailght, then I colored the lenses with a red fine tip sharpie, and then I went around that with a black fine tip sharpie. I also got the digital bos mounted, made from styrene thanks for looking and comments welcome. Edited March 2, 2011 by tyrone
Dragracer Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 As I've said before : just Beautiful. Tyrone does build some of the best Pro-Mods I've seen on any forum. I can't wait (well really I can & will have to!)to see what he builds next. Tyrone... YOU RULE!
tyrone Posted March 4, 2011 Author Posted March 4, 2011 Thanks for the comments fellas, well I've got the side windows in, and added bolt head details to them, I out a few decals on not many debating on whether to put some along the bottom of the doors, rocker panel area, what do you guys think?? still have alot to do, more updates soon, thanks for looking and comments welcome.
camarobuilder Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 Tyrone, this thing turned out awesome! I sent you the picture of Frank tamez's car that you built this car to look similar to. Frank is a friend of mine on Facebook, and I sent him a picture of the build a few weeks ago, and he really liked it. I also sent him a link to this build so he could see all your work. Again...Great work! Frank
Dragracer Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 As for the decals, maybe just a few small ones, rear 1/4 or under the door.
Bastardo Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 One of the most jaw-dropping dragsters I've seen... Ever!
