RodneyBad Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 WOW!! Looks like your right on the Mark with the build.. Nice work.
patami Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 Niiiiiiiiiiiice. What scale is it in,and is the body some sorta resin? And where can i get one?
modelmarknz Posted April 9, 2012 Author Posted April 9, 2012 Niiiiiiiiiiiice. What scale is it in,and is the body some sorta resin? And where can i get one? It`s 1/24th scale and as for the body yes it`s resin, A guy that used to go to my model club here in NZ used to make them for me , but he has sold up his resin works to another guy a few years back and that guy hasn`t done any moulding as yet.. Was made from a 32 Ford Vicky kit , I think it was an old AMT kit ??
Dr. Cranky Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 I like these. Thanks for sharing them. Great photos too. Thank you.
Trans Am Erik Posted April 9, 2012 Posted April 9, 2012 That's awesome. it looks like the go-kart from hell. That would be a blast to drive. Do these cars race on a dirt track or pavement?
moomoo99 Posted June 29, 2012 Posted June 29, 2012 they race on oval dirt tracks they contact class so heaps hitting goes on i build few of these over years real ones and models as well do u have contact of person making those body
James2 Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 Great build, you don't see many of these and yours is spot on!
mopar68 Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 I love anything scratchbuilt, and this scratchbuilding is well done to boot. Great build mate, looks pretty well spot on so far.
modelmarknz Posted July 2, 2012 Author Posted July 2, 2012 A guy that used to go to my model club here in NZ used to make them for me , but he has sold up his resin works to another guy a few years back and that guy that has bought the bussiness is currenty in Hospital , so I don`t know when he will be making any more....I may have to make some myself soon as i find a house to rent. cheers mark
Modelbuilder Mark Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 never seen one like that. How much narrower is the rear wheels? Why so drastic, and how does that affect the handling?
Wayne Buck Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Wow, Mark!! You REALLY did an Outstanding job of reproducing that race car! I've never seen anything like that around here... It definitely looks like "Rubbin's Racin" down in your neck of the woods!
