Rustyrabbit Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Lookin good. What wheels are those? Have the Pegasus ones but these look more deep dish like

dimebolt Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 Very cool man. Looks like you have quite a collection going on. That's cool too. Corey

Geno Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Wow, that bad boy rocks Shane. May I ask where you got the wheels and tires and what they are? Thanks.
bodeen2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Wow, that bad boy rocks Shane. May I ask where you got the wheels and tires and what they are? Thanks. those wheels are Pegasus Hobbies T's w/Tires 23" Chrome
relaxednoma Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 I really love the realistic look this has. Excellent work
BigEdsGarage Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 This is a great build! It's always cool to see a replica scale car, especially when it can be done accurately. BTW the factory color on your brother's car is code 61 Burnished Brown Metallic, which is a fairly rare color on any of GM's performance cars. Wheels look like Boss 338's which are very similar to most torque thrust style wheels. Looks like you got the stance nailed down perfectly. Can't wait to see this one finished.
camarofreak82_427 Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 Thats a purdy color with a mean stance! Great work
outragis Posted November 16, 2012 Posted November 16, 2012 those wheels are Pegasus Hobbies T's w/Tires 23" Chrome I think they are 19's and 23's...
