Hey guys,

Is there a good source of option parts for 1/16 drag cars..? Resin or other media..(die-cast ?)

Mainly thinking along the lines of wheels, tyres, fuel cells, anything found on reasonably late model, as in 2007/8 and newer style Pro Mods.

I'm looking at getting the 70.5 Xtreme Camaro with Hemi ProMod motor from FlashPoint Motorsport. Waiting to hear back from Terry now. B)

Also checked out the slicks he has on offer too, as I think my old Revell tyres are passed their use by date.....:lol:

But I'm after a late model set of rims, star or 5-hole style....??:huh:

Any of our casters making something similar...? If someone can suggest something, it would be greatly appreciated. :blink:

cheers

Greg

Jim,

Mate....they look sweet as. Beautiful work mate.......:lol:

Would dearly love a set, but will probably stay with something resin. :huh: Terry has some new 5-hole fronts and rears on the way soon.

Thanks for the info though mate.

Casey,

:lol: I bookmarked some of yours on ebay last night..(not knowing they were yours)

They look great too mate, nice work. ;) Still up in the air regarding choice yet.....I may wait and see what the one's Terry is doing, look like.

Just ordered my other bits and pieces from Terry a short while ago. :P

Hey there George. Mate, yes...still plugging away on the Datto. Things slowed down a real lot here over summer, but that's about to change for the better, hopefully.....:lol:

Been picking away at the doors, adding (one almost finished) inner door detail, as she is going to be a "gutted" interior, thought I'd have a go at the doors too....:lol:

Also, come up with two new wild ideas whilst having a break......see, too much free time, you start thinking about new stuff......:lol:

The 1/16 70.5 Camaro I ordered off Terry a couple of days ago.....can't wait to start on that one. Big BAE blown motor......woohoo !.....B)

The 1/16 is slightly smaller in size, compared to 1/12, but should still be great for detailing...

PLUS........I gone and started another 1/12 project............

1/12 Camaro ProMod....... IF I can pull it off, it should be pretty kool....

Checked out Cynergy Race cars web for detailed sizing on their fairly new 69 ProMod body.....man, these things get chopped up.

So, that's where my 69 Camaro body is at.......very chopped up. :rolleyes::lol:

Stay tuned George. ;)

Hey Jim are those the same price as the 1/16 scale crager funny car rims. I picked up a set from you and loved the quality of them. They will be going on my current funny car build.

Hey Greg I have picked up a bunch of competition resins 1/16 scale engine parts, ie...valve covers, blower hats, oil pan, fuel cell, set of rear tire parts from Slixx Decals. an I have also picked up some parts from Flashpoint, flashpoint has some pretty sweet wide funny car rear tires. let me know if you'd like to see any pics of the parts. won't mind taking pics and posting them.
