moparmike619 Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 This kit was kind of a fight, but definitely worth the effort. While the finished product isn’t very realistic with the dual rear axle design and the over simplified chassis (don’t look at the bottom), it is still a very cool piece in the case to display a drag car on the back. Paint is Tamiya TS-12 Orange with Rustoleum Canvas White. Built box stock except a front plate from Best Model Car Parts and trim done in a combination of BMF and Ultracal precut chrome strips. This was also my first attempt at weathering anything: I decided to try out weathering the engine bay and the ramp but leave the body clean. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ncbuckeye67 Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 That is amazing! I love the weathering. The top of the air cleaner looks so realistic (so does the rest of it)! I may have to try this. They can't all be shiny & new looking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Nice Work. The weathering is very well done. Looks like they just washed it, before heading out to the strip. Good Show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
