Turbo Toppo' Empty Turbo Toppo'

Hard one to photograph but it turned out as I hoped & was a lot of fun
Engine is from the Trantula, chassis & body from the AMT Double dragster kit & the rest could be from anything (except the turbos & BOVs from Parts Box)
I cut the A pillars & trimmed the bottom of the body to to get a more wedgier shape. There are still a few little things to do but they can wait 'till I do the ramp truck

Evil, wicked, mean and nasty.

I like the way the turbos look, at first glance like a pair of headlights.

I wasthinkin the same thing as Fred, Headlamps on a race car???

I think you may have a problem with the tech inspecors when you get to the track with that single hoop roll bar. Wink

But if I was the tech guy, I'd let you run, twothumbsup twothumbsup

Looks "Tuff 'n' Nasty"... Well done!....
I agree with Carps about the roll cage though...
Ya wouldn't want to rely on it in a high speed drag crash.
