LN-8000 "Pro-Street"

[bonehead23]

I started with the Race Car hauler kit, but used the hauler body on another truck. I had an idea; shorten it, chop it, lower it, put '36 Ford hood side louvers in the truck hood, put on twin blowers and gasser style exhaust, 28" jada wheels, scratchbuild a stake bed using some ramp parts from an old Thrill Drivers '49 Merc kit, among other parts box goodies and eyeball engineering. This was fun to build, and i usually don't build trucks. Now I am planning some more..

I've got something like that in the "half finished" pile. The original idea was a single-axle drag truck, but the project stalled about a third of the way through.

Now thats different. That looks cool. So does the mower! Nice work.

Hey, Man....That IS nice.....Great use of old parts, too.....Truck modeling is very addicting.....I've got all sorts of models laying around, but I don't think I'll build anything other than trucks......Every once in a while, I'll build a car, but usually it's just part of a car hauler build or something......I hope you stay with it.....I can tell you, definitely, have some talent....
