Ira Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 A LITTLE GRILL... I cut 3 inches from the middle of the Corvette Grill. Next I sanded and shaped the Grill Ends a little and then glued it together. Here it is in place... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 so about how long ago were these 1/12 kits made? One of the Cords I used was dated 1993 and the other appears to be much older... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 THE UNDERSIDE!!! After some fitting I positioned the seats on the inside of the Underbody.

Ira Posted September 9, 2012 Author Share Posted September 9, 2012 Shame these are so expensive http://www.ebay.com/...=item51a129ccaa I think Pegasus does do larger scale wheels, these ones would be nice but it's not clear on exactly what scale they are http://www.hobbylinc.com/htm/pgh/pgh1198.htm Anyway, the ones you're using still look great Thanks Zac! Nice Wheels... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted September 11, 2012 Author Share Posted September 11, 2012 EXHAUST PIPES!!! THe Exhaust Pipes are made from Plastic and Aluminum Tubing, cut with a Razer Saw in a Miter Box. The extra tubing inside will make a good gluing surface for the Pipes... Here are the other 2 pieces. I painted them Flat Black. I glued them together to make it easier the attach the Pipes to the body. Here are the finished Pipes in place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
