brett Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 Started this in November 09, well the mockup and the paint anyway. Drug it back to the bench a couple of days ago and decided to bite the bullet and try to get it done this time. Paint is a DuPont red with red nail polish top coat on a Boyds coupster body. Resin funnycar engine etc with modified revell top sportsman chassis and tin. gonna flame it once I get all the ton of trial fitting done.Have to scratch most of the cage as this is pretty narrow inside. I want to get a few doorslammer builds done this year and this one is the test bed for the next (a modern interpretation of a SWC willys)
Greg Pugh Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 This should be interesting...... I'm tuned in!!
Dr. Cranky Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Wow, what a monster. I love it. That thing will terrorize the streets!
Mooneyzs Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Great start for the slammer. Slammers can be fun and quick builds
brett Posted March 15, 2011 Author Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks guys Great start for the slammer. Slammers can be fun and quick builds Chris, sorry if I confused you, I meant slammer as in Top Door Slammer the Aussie/Kiwi equivalent to Pro Mod. It will be detailed about the same amount as my chevelle , hope this clears it up for anyone who's a bit confused about it.
Dragracer Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Looks nice Brett, love the red paint, can't wait to see the flame job, have a '41 Willys from Flashpoint, the body on that is really narrow too, my plans (when I get to it)is either modifing it to be a '41 Plymouth or a modern Big John car, could be a nice match to your upcoming SWC Willys.
1320wayne Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 Paint looks awesome Brett. Sure to be a head turner when it's done.
Tedly Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Looks great Brett, good idea to use that body, and the color is awesome.

Can't wait to see more of this build.
tyrone Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 Looking good brett, I'm sure you'll knock it out the park...
W-409 Posted March 17, 2011 Posted March 17, 2011 This is going to be interesting! These are perfect cars for building Pro Mod, or Top Doorslammer. I like the paint, it looks very good on this body. Engine looks good too, and that mockup is so great that I can't wait to see the finished product...
