Hi Stan

After posting on your build I went to a few model shops trying to find a pro sportsman kit but could not get one so I brought a

t bird pro stock kit lines up pretty good I had to trim the rear end and fire wall

I will be trying to mock up the cage over the weekend

I just need to find a narrower set of rear tyres to get a 10.5 look

[1 bad55 stan]

I never thought to try the t bird frame as i have 1 of them.Is that the engine your going to use?No matter what i know it will look cool.

[gtcapri]

Not sure at the moment it will be getting a different blower I'm looking at a 14/71 kobelco style. But I would like to use a small block with a shorter tunnel ram

You should check out the set of slick that come in the 8 pack made by amt i think there like 8 bucks at hobby lobby.

Hi Tim,are you going to leave it black or do you have another color in mind?I'm only asking so we don't end up having the same or similar paint jobs...

[freakshow12]

Where did you get the wheels?

[gtcapri]

hi freakshow got the wheels from thepartsbox.com here in oz they are really good quality I just wasn't sure how to fit them being new to this as i wanted them to rotate so i made a custom hub do you guys normally glue them on ?

Hi Stan yeah plan to leave it black but I was going to strip it back as I did not prim it and looks a bit dodgy where the chrome panels were on the rear quarters apparently this can be done with glass cleaner

and it will have candy red interior

Nice.... cage looks sweet, I hope u dont mind me say I would have painted the floor black n the wheel tubs silver so that the cage stands out it may get lost being all red that's just my opinion not trying to sound rude or nothing it looks good nice and smooth paint good job

[1 bad55 stan]

[gtcapri]
