Well cracked open one of my new 32 kits and its really nice.

But, the only thing I need for this build will be the body. The rest of the kit will be used another day.

Started with a parts box frame and layed out some guidlines.

This is what the first mockup looked like for today.

Motor is still up in the air, but I know its going to sit back under the cowl a bit.

Sounds like a dragster to me?! I just got one yesterday. I think that I'm going to go with a fendered streetrod and see how the new flathead goes together. Good luck on your build and keep up the posts!!

Why am I not surprised to see you doing a drag version? ;) You should toss around the idea of doing an Orange Crate from this new kit. It would be some work, but it probably wouldn't be any worse than the original Revell issue of the Orange Crate. :lol: Just a thought! If you don't, I'm sure somebody will.....

Oh, I almost forgot, nice job so far! B)

The engine for this build has been decided on and painted.

Also did a quick mock up of it in the frame with the car sitting on its own wheels.

It looks like a real killer already! It's wild with the set back engine. Polish the paint, why? Looks good to me, and old style race cars didn't have perfect paint jobs. Right?
