cobraman Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Sitting like that it reminds me of a salt flats racer. Very cool Ira, very cool.
Ira Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 Man Ira, this already looks better than the actual car!!!! Thanks Derrick!
Chitown Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Wow-wee another wild one in the works! How do you come up with these ??? Lookin'n great, love the color! The side profile kinda reminds me of the Garlits/Jocko streamliner. Awesome!
John Teresi Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Ira.......SO SO NICE!!!!!!...........you know I love this build
Mooneyzs Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 Ira.... This is so cool. I love the paint. It looks great!! Keep up the great work

Ira Posted March 4, 2013 Author Posted March 4, 2013 (edited) INTERIOR PANELS... I cut 2 pieces of plastic, and beveled the top edges, to make the side panels in the interior. I also cut 2 more strips of plastic to "Back" the 2 front vents... Next I glued the underside Access Panel in place and then used Elmers White Glue on the interior joints. The interior was then painted flat black. More Coming... Edited April 9, 2013 by Ira
Ira Posted March 5, 2013 Author Posted March 5, 2013 Love it! It's starting to look like a sexier version of the Landspeeders from Star Wars. THANKS CHUCK!
Tumbler75 Posted March 6, 2013 Posted March 6, 2013 Ira, I have to say that your imagination is bigger than this universe and I'm glad some of it has escaped into your wonderful works of art. Seeing your work (as well as a few other talented builders) has inspired several of my own projects (on going as they are and some completed ones as well). Thank you for sharing this and your many other awesome builds. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.
Ira Posted March 6, 2013 Author Posted March 6, 2013 That is going to be one killer exhaust Ira! The scallop on the rear really helps too, it looks much better! Thanks Mike!
Ira Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) ROBO-PILOT!!! I used the driver from a Monogram Stinger Dragster for AeroTrec. I carved down the fire mask to look more like a Sci Fi Helmet. I did the Tribal Flames on the helmet with a Sharpie. The idea for these Anti Gravity Racers comes from a Video Game so I decided that the Pilot will control the AeroTrec with a Video Game Controller! The last photo showed a big chip in the Bubbletop. I covered it with a NASCAR Decal.AEROTREC IS FINISHED!!! Finished Photos Coming... Edited April 9, 2013 by Ira
Ira Posted March 7, 2013 Author Posted March 7, 2013 The New Oldsmobile Rocket 88 ! Nice work Ira . Bill Haley Rocket '88 lyrics Songwriters: BRENSTON, JACKIE You may have heard of jalopies, You heard the noise they make, Let me introduce you to my Rocket '88. Yes it's great, just won't wait, Everybody likes my Rocket '88. Gals will ride in style, Movin' all along. (Guitar solo, leading into steel guitar solo.) V-8 motor and this modern design, My convertible top and the gals don't mind Sportin' with me, ridin' all around town for joy. (Spoken) -- Blow your horn, Rocket, blow your horn! (Horn sound effect leading into guitar solo.) Step in my Rocket and-a don't be late, We're pullin' out about a half-past-eight. Goin' on the corner and-a havin' some fun, Takin' my Rocket on a long, hot run. Ooh, goin' out, Oozin' and cruisin' along. (Guitar solo.) Now that you've ridden in my Rocket '88, I'll be around every night about eight. You know it's great, don't be late, Everybody likes my Rocket '88. Gals will ride in style, Movin' all along. (Fade out, ending with sound effect of a car driving away.) Thanks Andy!
Ira Posted March 8, 2013 Author Posted March 8, 2013 Ira, it looks great! I just want to see that exhaust in place, you've gotta find a way to get flames shooting out if it too! Thanks Mike! Great Idea...
