Hemi Hiboy
Revell Roadster with the "hemi" from the 5 window using headers from my parts box plus valve covers from the same source (AMT '70 Super Bee maybe?).
Wheels are Fujimi and the roof is a combination of Revell '53 'vette & scratchbuilding.

Re: Hemi Hiboy
Neat, I like the camshaft up the front Where are the wires from? They look almost like aluminium/PE ones.

Re: Hemi Hiboy
Great looking rod Fred. You do such a good job on these. I just wondered how it would look with white walls? Those wire wheels look fab - where did you find them?

Re: Hemi Hiboy
I think white walls are overdone on rods.
Wheels are Fujimi Boranni and are chromed styrene with rubber tyres. A mere $14 a set from Hobby Link Japan (inc postage).

Note that the pic on the box has the proportions completely wrong

Re: Hemi Hiboy
Very nice...where'd you get the injection of good taste?
Some taller tyres on the back would really improve the look though IMHO.

Re: Hemi Hiboy
Thanks folks.
Bryce - smaller fronts would probably be the go but finding some to match the quality of the (rubber) rears would be tough.
