UNDERBODY ATTACHED!

I cut out a small section of the Underbody for Cockpit Access...

Then I glued in the rest of the Underbody with Zap-A-Gap...

PRIME TIME AGAIN!

I sanded the body sides down level with a Sanding Block and then used 220 Sandpaper all over.

Next I applied putty and let it dry. Sanded it smooth again with 220 Sandpaper.

Ira, can you put an engine next to this for us? It looks like you made it too shallow for an engine to fit.

Thanks for your comment Rob!

The MPC "Can AM" Turbine Engine is my choice, its a Great Fit. 2 Turbocharged Harleys or a 4-Banger Racing Engine would also be an easy fit... B)

Very cool idea. I look forward to seeing it.

You could always do a boxster type 10 or 12 clyender or one long rotary engine if a standard engine wont work.

That is if you dont have something even crayzer in mind

Thanks for your suggestions Gary!

A Rotary Engine would probably fit too... B)

Now I need to decide on Sponsors & Colors... B)

Well everything is so aero, frankly the US Air Force seems a no brainer as a sponsor. We'll seen military sponsors in NASCAR, why not LSR? That would also make the color, obvious.

Another great build! A Corvair flat six might fit, and would be extremely different.

Thanks Gerald!

Getting better by the day . Still think the Stars and Stripes are right for it draped over both vehicles.

and make a custom flat 12 corvair and quad turbo with a large dose of nitrous :D .

This has inspired me to come up with some sort of hauler but that is off in the future.....
