Dyno Davo Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Completion #2: Wired the motor with simulated clear/copper plug leads, Alcaded most of the chrome, scratch built new front wire wheels, tidied up some of the fit and finish and used real chrome springs in the suspension. oh yeah also added machined gauges.
Dyno Davo Posted April 4, 2013 Author Posted April 4, 2013 Thanks guys. The wire spokes are small lengths of 32 gauge fuse wire
jaydar Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I have the Roth Outlaw and Tweedy Pie and I would give anything if they came out as well as yours. Congratulations! joe.
TooOld Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Now that's a beautiful Outlaw ! Really clean and great detailing ! Nicest one I've seen in a long time .
Sixties Sam Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Beautiful! The wire wheels are really well done. I built that kit in the 1960's. Mine never looked near that good! Nice work! Sam
johnz Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 beautiful build those front wheels are incredible! if you ever decided to market those i'd like to be first in line
RancheroSteve Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Wow, that is really impressive! Can we see more photos?
Austin T Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 Very nice job! Next your going to tell me something like how you didn't like the kit decals and did all the fade by hand or something crazy like that.
PeeBee Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I just viewed this and your other Roth builds. Outstanding. Just outstanding. Really fine craft here. Paul B.
Duntov Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 WOW!!! How often do you see one of the Revell show cars actually built up.... this nice anyway!?!?! Great job!!! Love to see these actually built as intended!!!
58 Impala Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 You should do a tutorial on building your wire wheels, they look great.
peekay Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 I agree with all of the above. Fine work throughout and the wires really set it apart. Best build of this kit I've ever seen.
CrazyGirl Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 totaly outstanding ,, a few Q's , i assume you stripped the chrome plating before alclad , the springs , i would like to see pics of how that was done , and you must show how you did the wheels and the gauges , oh and what do you eat, maybe that has something to do with how you do what you do lol
Webb Posted April 5, 2013 Posted April 5, 2013 Excellent work Dave. Best one I've seen, especially the wheels!
D Fowler Posted April 6, 2013 Posted April 6, 2013 (edited) Fantastic! The front wheels are amazing, for sure. I'm wondering how you got the decals to lay down so nice. They're quite a task. Edited April 6, 2013 by D Fowler
