some more doorslammers

That will look wicked

Not to sure about the fins? on the back, but that's just me. Im sure I will like it once it's done.

I'm not to sure of the fins either so will have a bit of a play around with some other wings until I find one that I like better.
Dale yea its brass mate needs alot more work , I just checked I started this in Feb 07. Know a bit more now so will change a couple of things and add a lot more

First free day that I've had that my hands were up to the task so I finished war and started putzing with this one again

Did some engine work today and tried a new shade of green as the pearl green just didnt show enough

Awesome colour 'SlammerFan
What engines (or bases/blocks) do you use? Gibson?

Thanks mate, nahcant afford that stuff, would like a coup[le of his engines though. I use Revell funny car blocks n heads modified manifolds and revell top sportsman gearboxes all cast in resin same with all the different blowers and hats. What do ya think of my scratch built fuel pump ? 17 pieces in that bad boy

Cool, thanks for the info mate.
Some great details in that engine, looks like you've got it worked out perfectly. And I think the pump is

How wicked does this look, super nice pickup Brett Love the colour.

love your work !!!! I also build doorslamers/blown outlaws but your engine detail blows me away

Thanks guys, got some more work done on the frame today



ride height is pretty much set here, a little lower at the back is all

rear end stuff today

Seems like this ones taking forever due to all of life's holdups , got a couple of hours in to day though. Made up some rear shocks and finished up the 4 link


added a few more bars to the cage, just need to make up the motor plate support bars and the fuel cell cage and it will be ready for primer ( I hope)

That detail is awsome mate, your patience must be increadible. but, i've had games of pick-up sticks that look less confusing than that. WELL DONE, can't wait to see it in undercoat.

Thanks mate, Well I wont make any rude remarks about you being confused seeing as where you're from but I will say it must look pretty confusing for those who havent seen one in the flesh so to speak. Anyways hope these make it all a bit clearer



and a couple more gratuitous mockups

Looking very cool mate, as I've said before love your work

That is some tremendous amount of detail.
Love your work and I can't wait to see this one done

Awesome barwork dsf. That pickup should look killer when you're done.

Awesome work mate !!!!! watching your builds have been a real inspiration

Thanks guys, threw a couple decals on todat to see if I liked them or not, pretty happy with them, pics are a little dark but should have some more done by the end of the weekend

Absolutely love your work mate.
Can't wait to see this one finished.

Decals pretty much done ( I think ) scuffed up the lefthand side for wall damage, didnt want to go to far with it

sneak preview of the next two to hit the bench

I like where the Merc is heading. Will be watching this one.

same here, you can't go wrong with a 57 too

Thanks guys, mercs gonna be a fair bit more work, ie scratch built chassis etc cause its a bit bigger than the pro sportsman kit. Got the 57 underway, hope to have it done by mid next week. Tamiya coral blue over yellow to Teal it up a little more to better replicate the car I'm doing
