Dave Van Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) I like this little kit. It is beyond simple....but a few others have done modified builds....so I thought I would. Only major work was interior....and not that much really vs a full build...... I cut the floor out of the bucket and used sheet stock, rod stock and parts from a Revell IMSA Mustang kit. Also used the wheels and tires from said kit. Wing is from a Japanese wing kit. Kinda a '1970 SCCA Trans Am ' look combined with todays road racers. Wiper and fresh air vent from IMSA kit too. It will get some custom graphics later....for now I'm done. Edited August 3, 2014 by Dave Van
Dragline Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Super tight Dave........ What color is that. I also like the touches. These cars are ripe for this treatment. Bob
Harry P. Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 That's cool. But you forgot to paint the rear side marker lights.
Austin T Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 That's cool. But you forgot to paint the rear side marker lights. It's a race car Harry, they don't need those anyways.
Dave Van Posted July 20, 2014 Author Posted July 20, 2014 That's cool. But you forgot to paint the rear side marker lights. Race car.......I kept the project super simple....no putty! Color is Tamiya Brilliant Orange. Thanks!
Harry P. Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Race car.......I kept the project super simple....no putty! oh, ok...
Danno Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 He painted the blank-outs. I get it! Nice clean build, Dave.
Harry P. Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 He painted the blank-outs. I get it! Apparently so.
o-man Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 Sweet looking! Did you have to narrow rear to get those big slicks in?
Flexcars Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 where did you get the wheels? Your build is super cool looking!
DynoMight Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 That's cool. But you forgot to paint the rear side marker lights.
Dave Van Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 Thanks all..... Wheels, tires, seat, oil tank, fire bottle, wiper and air duct all from the Revell IMSA Mustang kit.
Scuderia Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Super Sharp and cool Dave. I like it .... I agree, this is a great idea for this kit, can't wait to get one myself.
DeeCee Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Nice looking racer , love those wheels on it too, they really set it off i think.
om617 Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Looks great,and i agree on the wheels,they are (forum dont allow the word lol). Great build.
Platerpants Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 like it, but ill still with my blue or red stangs that look stock but pack a big block punch. Very nice work
