Just had fun with this one, a one week build but definitely wanna do another one.

This one is, well I can't say box stock cuz its nodded pretty well, engine has been changed out from what was in the kit to the truck kit, cut the rear gearing mechanism off and replaced it to the opposite engine (fits perfectly), with this change, it give a more defined engine with real headers, and valve covers that can be detailed.

the interior wasn't touched much other than tricky painting & custom mixed flocking to get the color of the car., added two nitrous tanks, plumbed in the hatch part of the car, removing the rear tire that was there.

outside the car, just cleaned it up, added 23" Pegasus rims, with a custom cut lip to the rears, matched to the car itself. added a Ings Z-power wing, painted semi gloss black. Also did a trick with the front lights giving it a hid, added a piece of brass wire thru both lights, then using a blue gel pen added a drop or two, then topped off with 2 drops of CA glue and kicker.. Car is painted Black Gold Nova orange metallic base, Tangelo pearl, and topped with folk art clear.
