whale392 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I always liked this era of Funny Cars (as it is the ear I grew up through) and look forward to seeing this one come to life.
W-409 Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 This sounds really good. Can't wait to see. anyway heres the pics Where? I can't see them, does someone else see them?
Jantrix Posted October 14, 2011 Posted October 14, 2011 It's gonna be real slow with the front end dragging like that.
3men2s Posted October 17, 2011 Posted October 17, 2011 this built was the one that got me back into modeling a few years back. will be watching.
Truck parts Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 DANNY, THAT IS A NICE LOOKING BLUE MAX.WAS ALWAYS A FAN OF THAT TEAM.
jasoncamaro Posted October 18, 2011 Author Posted October 18, 2011 Danny do you have any reference pics of this car, Really nice build there too!
3men2s Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 (edited) sorry Bro, but back then I did not have internet or a digital camera but try to gloogle mid 80's funny cars, for sure you can get losts of ideas for the chassie. just for FYI...most of this kits, specially funny cars, their stands are not right. check the pics of the 1;1 funny cars, in the 80's they started to pay lots of attention in the air dynamics and the boddies are low. to get that effect I cut of about 1/10 of the bars of the roll cage were the driver seats. and cut an opening on the side of the skirts for the headers. and thanks for the coments on my stang.

3men2s Posted October 18, 2011 Posted October 18, 2011 here is an example http://canneysgarage.canney.net/lifesadrag/bluemax85/index.html this is a beautifull and clean build, but can you see that the body looks to high, you can tell by checking the back tire that does not look tucked in like the 1;1 counterparts.
mytricia Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 that is one great looking model!--love it-love it-love it. . keep up the awesome work!
