Gas Ronda's Thunderbolt

[bogger44]

Hey guys, here's my latest project, just finished it up earlier today. I raised the suspension for a better stance, used some better looking parts box tires for the fronts, and added coil/ignition wires. Other than that, its box stock. Testors Italian Red was used as a stand in for Poppy Red, and I shot the interior in Model Master SAC Bomber Tan. It's not the greatest match, but it's the closest that I had on hand. Putting the kit together was a breeze, no real fitment issues. Though, when installing the chassis into the body for final assembly, the engine and headers are a tight squeeze getting past the inner fenders. Thanks for looking and hope you like it.

Super clean build, buddy! If a guy didn't know better, looking into that interior, I'd think it was the rea thing!

Thanks so much guys. To give the front bumper the aluminum look, I just shot it with some Testors flat clear lacquer.
