teamstorm02 Posted February 5, 2015 Author Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) Looks like a good start to me! I like the black wheels. Are those MicroNitro pieces? Also, what tires are you using on them? They really fill up the rear of the Mustang nicely. actually i got them from E-slotcar.com and i took slot car wheels and put them inside the revel prostck t-bird tires. these are the wheels http://www.e-slotcar.com/shop/style-j-magnum/pro-track-1-116-x-332-x-500-wide-style-j-black-ptc-n407j-bl/ i have to do another set for the nova so when i do those ill show a step by step of what i did for the other tires It's great that you are learning new things, doing modifications, chassis swaps, roll cages and the like, but lets not forget the basics. Clean model building. Like this seam for instance. yeah i definitely understand attention to detail is definitely a big thing.. im just used to working on the 1:1 stuff haha so this little bitty stuff i over look some things this was a motor i built for my old 2003 twin turbo mustang. all the pullies you see were cnc'd by my father this was the car.. everything was built for over a 1000rwhp and these are the new toys just started working on this one Edited February 5, 2015 by teamstorm02
Rolandm925 Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 Looking awesome, keep the pics coming! I'm building one from scratch with just parts around the garage. Mine is 1/18 diecast
Rolandm925 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I would love to know where you found the red tag hanging on the shut. Made? Found? In model kit?
horsepower Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I know it's to late now for these builds. But a couple of tips on styrene plastic sizes in scale, the.062 is approximately 1-1/2" in size and the .080 is equivalent to 1-3/4". But a real easy way to judge sizes is the metric sizes are also on the packaging, and 1mm works out to about 1" if you keep that in the back of the old memory bank it's a lot easier when looking for a particular size in material for your builds. Oh yeah, pretty good builds.
mikemopar70 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Nice projects, accurate looking roll bars, bot of these will look cool.
