If you look at the motor shot closely you will see Revell screwed up the exhaust spacing for a BB..

 

I went with it anyway cuz the dam headers had to fit the chassis.

DUDE - EVERY time I think your attention to detail / whether it be boats-model cars-rockets-helicopters-airplanes- and and - is amazing,

you step it up again . STOP IT - your gonna make me start wanting to do plastics again

Very nice, btw does the front tag read - Dr.Fast ?????

 

[Bill Gibson]

Grim, your levels at any kind of model making are levels i will simply NEVER experience! AWESOME! BTW, did you ever mess with slot cars? I remember mounting Model car bodies on 1/32nd or 1/24th scale slot car chasis..Cox, Eldon, Strombecker, etc....didnt last long though, ususally a few hard crashes would do the poor bodies in!! Those were the days!

 

[Ray Sametz]

My only experience with plastic models was not cars or planes. I built Frankenstien, Dracula, Wolfman, Godzilla. Never collected baseball cards either, still have a few of these left. Guess a little insight into my personality.

 

[Grimracer]

Andy, Yep. Dr, FAST.. lol.. Thanks again for the kind words.

 

Billy, Dont get me started on Slots lol.. I raced for Ron Hirshman (Fast Ones) but also drag raced. I have pictures and videos..lol If it has a slot I played with it.....aha..............

 

Ray. I have done a few movie monsters and really like your background on this. I use to do a public access TV show called scale model racing. My buddy Rob Madison also did a show and it was all movie monsters and what not. when I was not running cameras I would sometimes do a guest appearance and do some airbrushing for him.

 

Take care

H.O.(remember Aurora Model Motoring?), 1/32Eldon, Strombecker tracks-n-cars, then the 1/24th stuff....Group 15, Group 20, Stock Flexi, Mod Flexi, Sprint Car Flexi,......had just GREAT times as a kid with H.O. stuff, we,d go to different kids houses in the neighborhood to race on each others tracks.....i remember going to the PX at Macdill AFB and getting an Aurora MM or A/FX car for the tidy sum of..............TWO BUCKS, No TAX!!! GREAT OL TIMES!! I wish i still had some of the old stuff i either tore up, or wore out!!

 

[Grimracer]

I have sold most of my stuff but still have a few HO cars (Vintage,, remember.,. Dons Hobby Shop in my bacement!) lol
