Post by Ray64 Tue 20 Jan 2015, 12:11 am

Chaps,
First one for 2015, Revell 'Good Guys' Street Rod Kit, made it look like a sleeper using a set of 'Old School' rims from 'The Parts Box' Cool
Intake from a Sprintcar kit, good match IMO... Wink  Did a slight 'drop' to the suspension as well Smile
Tamiya TS-14 Gloss Black (4 coats) over a semi gloss base coat, I used Tamiya polish, both coarse and finish to get the overall finish I wanted Cool
Overall a good kit to build, the interior was a challenge though Wink
Cheers
Ray

Very nicely done mate, love the sprintcar injection too, would have been a great "shine" runner in its day with that addition.

Where did this come from??
Nice one mate, I really like it. Those artillery wheels look great on it and the colour of them really offsets the black bigthumbsup

Hey ozmodeler, the beehive lenses came out of my stash and I'm pretty sure they're from the Italeri Truck Accessories kit Wink
