74 GTX

[diymirage]

i guess this is the first full model i finished this year

when i first started it i was planning on building it as a junker/roadwarrior, you know, the kind of car a college kid who drive who spend every penny on power and not a cent on looks

something with a 440 sixpack and deep dish steelies

alas, the paint came out way too good so i decided to slap on partsbox rims (lambos from a diecast)

very little custom work on this build, just a quick build (when did 2 months become quick )

it has the lambo rims, custom decals and a set of parts box headers running through some custom pro street style pipes

(actually modified revell challenger units)

comments are always welcome

thanks

its no where near what i envisioned when i started but i dig the way it came out

i even used the second pick and set it as my desktop background

i just might boot the twin turbo camaro from the TV stand and put this baby on display in its place

(with a one year old running around everything on display has to be at least 4 foot high)

Great Looking GTX.

Paint and Decal looks perty good.

I like the wheels & Tires

I'll have to go find me a DieCast Lambo

BTW: Diecast cars Do make cheap wheel donors if anybody didn't know that

Great work!!

That just look sweet and the decals on it just rock.

thanks guys

funny thing about the decals, i spend a good while looking for a set of stock decals for this car

all i kept getting was advise on aftermarket companies but i didnt want to spend that much on them so i decided to make something up myself

the strobe stripe is from a 71 roadrunner and im not sure where the GTX call out was from but i thought it look like something plymouth would do back in the day
