2lapsdown Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 I have this kit and have the build on my radar, this will be very helpful. Thanks for sharing your project, I'm looking forward to watching this. Where did you get the wheels? John
freakshow12 Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 This is going to be nice. If you want a look at some jambs you should check out my twister special WIP and under glass. Built it around Easter but should be easy to find
superbike-shaun Posted June 19, 2014 Author Posted June 19, 2014 Looks great. Keep the updates coming. Thank you robin, im really going to make an attempt to finish this one!
66belair Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 You are off to a great start, keep if coming. I'd like to know where you got those wheels from also.
oldnslow Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 (edited) Assuming that you're building a race car, weren't the doors on this car welded shut? Never mind I just looked at the 69 rules and the doors had to open. Edited June 20, 2014 by oldnslow

John HI john, thanks for looking in, the wheels are from Ebay (fowarad resins .com) they are simply beauty!

superbike-shaun Posted June 25, 2014 Author Posted June 25, 2014 Hey all, just a couple updates for ya, I started woking on the front of the body, and noticed that the nose piece, the hood, and the fenders don't meet up ,so whati did was ,,,, cut a small piece of 0.10 styrene(evergreen) and "welded" it to the nose piece on the very end, other side, so, when cleand up and "welded" together it will provide a better fit,(excuse me fat fingers!) thanks for lookin,paint is about 3 days away so keep watchin and commenting! Shaun.s
