Well, a pretty basic build to kick off the year, but it saved an old body from the scrap heap.
I gave it a Hemi, some wheels from a Willys kit, and a sweet candy green paint job.

Kicked off the year with a cracker Dale, well done mate. Reminds me off the Wacky Races cartoons for some reason! Very Happy

I keep coming back to this and can't help but think that it would look even slicker if the front tyres weren't so chunky...but that's just me.  It looks good and I love the paint. Never been a big fan of the kit, but you have made it work so well.

I agree with you 100% on the tyres, i went through about 50 sets of tyres trying to find something to fit the rims i used, the tyre needed to be hollow to fit the rim,
but all the skinny ones are solid, so i just ran with the only set that fit.. and thanks . Smile

I'm blown away by the speed at which you build mate, those paint jobs must take forever to mask up? Good work bigthumbsup

I always loved the T’Rantula kit. This definitely makes me want to build mine although I know my paint job is not gonna be anywhere near as cool as yours. Great work Dale!- Mark
