Kyle Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 (edited) I started this car about 5 years ago, and just finally decided to finish it. This is my 2006 Dodge Viper SRT10 drift car. I painted it with automotive touch-up paint from a spray can. The decals were made for me by the owner of Spare Time Hobbies here in Winnipeg. I added a few photo-etch pieces by Model Car Garage, including the spoiler, seat belt hardware, throttle linkage bracket, electric fan, and disc brakes. I turned some parts on my lathe including the engine pulleys, brake booster, fire bottle, nitrous tank, and oil filter. The wheels are from Pegasus. The helmet is from a NASCAR kit. I also added a roll cage. See my in-progress thread for a few close-up pictures of the engine and interior. http://www.modelcars...l=+drift +viper Thanks for looking.

Intmd8r Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I like it. The paint looks like the same Duplicolor spray can that I used for my Challenger build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys. I can't remember the exact colour. But like Steve said, it's a Duplicolour green. Maybe a Toyota colour? I painted this a while ago and the can is long gone. Steve, almost all of my extended family lives in Welland. It's been a few years since I've been down there, but it's a beautiful place.

Intmd8r Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Kyle, small world! I'm originally from Niagara Falls myself (a whopping 15 min. away from Welland), but have been living here for the last 5 years. My wife's cousin just happens to be visiting us from Winnipeg at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
