bosshog Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Great build, I like that very much. God I bet that was a nightmare to wire but looks fantastic
ApexSpeed Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Once of my favorite funny cars of all time. Sale and his crew used to stop in a local hot dog joint that was owned by a friend of his and park overnight on the way to Indy for the Nationals every year. They would pull the car out and get work done in the parking lot more often than not, and getting to go to the diner as a kid and just soak in the car and everything about it was a highlight of my summers. I remember when this car got to Indy that year and as a young teen, I think I spent an hour talking to Kenny Youngblood about the design and the paint on it. Definitely had a big influence on me as a youth interested in making art and design a career. The only part of the paint that didnt get replicated is the beautiful "tequilla sunrise" color fades, which would be very difficult to replicate on the model. Still, a stunning version of Pulde's beautiful Buick Regal flopper. I absolutely love it. Wonderful work! doug
ApexSpeed Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) What funny car are you using for the base model? Edited January 19, 2014 by ApexSpeed
Old Coyote Posted January 19, 2014 Author Posted January 19, 2014 What funny car are you using for the base model? The chassis and running gear came from a Spy vs Spy Firebird kit .......... any late Revell funny car kit will do ........ slicks and Weld wheels came from Comp Resins
Silver Foxx Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Another great build , love the paintwork and the stance.
