W-409 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 It's Revell's kit. They've made a new release of it too, but this one is the older one... That Vega looks like a great build, can't go wrong with Vega. Cool build.
SuperStockAndy Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 Thanks Niko, I gotta get me one of them
High octane Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Revell;s '69 Nova with the 427 from the Nova Yenko kit.
SuperStockAndy Posted August 16, 2011 Author Posted August 16, 2011 That FED looks like a sawblade on top Nice work! I really like that Nova too
High octane Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Thanks Andy, In the summer of '66 there was a dragster called "The Beast from the East" and of course I took a photo of it and it inspired me to build this "Beast" even though it's not a replica. I did use an original Tommy Ivo kit and the fins and wings were scratch built out of Evergreen and Plastruct. The Dzus fasteners are a Pro-Tech item and the paint is Testors and not too shiny as I've never seen dragons have a mile-deep coat. I also made a longer push-bar, added a drain bolt in the pan, and did basic wiiring and plumbing.
Dragracer Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 O-K, seen a lot of great builds on this here post,& lets see, sister's at work,niece is visiting a friend in the hospital,then she has an appointment this afternoon, I can get hold of the camera & take a couple photos of 2 of my builds, only have 2 here in Tucson, the rest are still in storage in Fl.,neither one is completely done,but I'll take some photos & try to get them up later today or tomorrow. Great idea there Andy, like the cars I'm seein'!
deathskull59 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 and heres the 70 camero the pic of the car is relly dark.
deathskull59 Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 and the rustler a 69 nova ss it was gunna be built like a dragster but never was. it was thrown away just for the parts and rusty chassis that i still have.
KiwiMike Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 (edited) Like everyone else I have enjoyed this thread. Here are a few of mine. This was built from the Badman kit. Edited August 16, 2011 by KiwiMike
KiwiMike Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Winston Mustang. Resin body, not sure whose decals.
KiwiMike Posted August 16, 2011 Posted August 16, 2011 Mooneyes Daytona. Resin body with Slixx decals
1320wayne Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Mike, real nice job on both funny cars. The decals for the Winston car were never labeled as to who made them. There were a few sheets back in the day that were known as backroom decals due to lack of licensing. This may have been one of them.
gasser59 Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Man, this thread just keeps getting better and better and I am enjoying it immensely. Keep on posting.
High octane Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Three red race cars and none of them are Ferrari's.
MicroNitro Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 The stuff on here is unbelievable. I have not done any drag cars lately but here are a few I did about six or seven years ago.
gasser59 Posted August 17, 2011 Posted August 17, 2011 Those are sure some sweet builds Jim and i especially like the Mickey Thompson Pinto. Always liked that car.
Dragracer Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 Nice builds all, caine440, really like your Sox & Martin cars, was wondering, where did you get the Challenger body?, always liked that style in P/S & F/C .
