tyrone Posted August 27, 2013 Author Posted August 27, 2013 Thanks alot fellas... I really appreciate the kind words...I got some body work done on this one last night, and I'm about at the point where she's ready for some paint... Not wanting to do anything crazy on this one.. I was thinking yellow with black yenko stripes, or maybe a grayish silver, or orange with black yenko stripes... any ideas feel free to chime in...
futurattraction Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 I can't wait to see whatever you come up with Tyrone... What about a dark charcoal metalic with silver stripes?
Mister Twister Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Just awesome work Tyrone! I talked to Wayne today and he is on the road today in his big rig but we both hope to go to Atl this year and hope to see you there. Neither of us have anything on the bench right now but it will be cool to see your stuff in person again.
Prostreet Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Looking good as usual Tyrone, I threw in the towel on the truck. To many issues to make it work, i have one of the Comp resins 2013 camaros i might try.
ScrappyJ Posted August 29, 2013 Posted August 29, 2013 I have to agree with everyone else...great work as usual, Tyrone!
NJJK Posted August 30, 2013 Posted August 30, 2013 This thing is bad ass man! How are you bending the cage and chassis and what size rod are you using?
DrKerry Posted September 1, 2013 Posted September 1, 2013 Hey Tyrone, where did you get the Hoosier tire lettering? That looks kool on this.....
hOLMS Posted September 3, 2013 Posted September 3, 2013 Hey Tyrone....just went thru the whole build again, someone mentioned museum piece, I'll agree to that! There just something about seeing one of your builds with the rolling chassis, motor mounted with the nose and doors off and the rest of the body mounted. It's truly an awesome sight, I love it bro!! Your an awesome builder and I look fwd to every one of your builds/updates.

I'll be in Atlanta this year.. cant wait to chat with you guys.... Joe.... thanks alot... sorry to hear about the truck...I'm locked in on you dragster though... Wayne..... thanks man..... hope to see you in Atlanta.... Dirk.... thanks man for checking in on it..... John... thanks alot... glad you like it.... Kerry... thanks man the decals are on the slixx.. tire decal sheet..... Jeff... thanks man.... that means alot to hear kind words like this from you guys.... much appreciated...
rigbuilder Posted September 5, 2013 Posted September 5, 2013 Man all the work you put into that monster looks awesome. I can't wait to see it in final color. Great work on the cage and that engine is sweet too.
comp1839 Posted September 7, 2013 Posted September 7, 2013 you make it look so easy tyrone! the sign of true talent.
crowe-t Posted September 10, 2013 Posted September 10, 2013 Tyrone, This looks incredible as do all of your builds! What metalizer paint and colors did you use on the headers? They look real. Mike.
tyrone Posted September 19, 2013 Author Posted September 19, 2013 Michael... the headers where paint gloss black first and then hit with aluminim, burnt iron, and polished brass....... I decided to make my own rear wing from sheet styrene.. I wanted it to come all the way out and fit flush with the rear quarters......
DrKerry Posted September 19, 2013 Posted September 19, 2013 That is just...........well yeah!!!!!!!!! Wicked as all get out!!!!!!
TedsModeling Posted September 20, 2013 Posted September 20, 2013 Top notch, Tyrone. The intricacy of the cage and chassis is just beautifully masterminded and executed. The work around the firewall alone is really difficult and you make it look so easy.There are so many individual pieces and bends in the completed chassis that it boggles my mind and results in pure artistry.
tyrone Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Thanks for the kind words fellas.... I've made a little progress on this one.. I've got the transmission and shifter pods all finished up, and I've started on the batteries... thanks for looking and comments welcome...
gasser59 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Sweet jiminy!! I swear that thing would fly down the quarter mile. Every current build of yours is my favorite. Exquisite stuff Ty.
Bill Edman Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 oh boy cannot wait for more the details are awesome
futurattraction Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Hey Ty, I love that last profile shot looking through the interior with the air shifter buttons and cage silhouetted. Detail and craftsmanship are up to your normal standards. Looking mighty fine, bud!
pharr7226 Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 I know that I sound like a broken record, but your detailing just gets better with each build. Beautiful work!
