alright fieldfairy, i'll get some pics of my model posted up in a bit. let's see yours. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2273.jpg |

http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0250.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0251.jpg The body is untouched part of the model chassis has been built a couple years ago. :lol: Everything is there. |
got the cutting done, it was a pain, this kit isnt the biggest so it was a little tricky cutting everything so it would fit. not real happy with the gap between the hood and front car support, but i
m not exactly what i can do with it at the moment. i tried filing down the edges where it meets up with the car, didnt really do much, i'll figure something out eventually. right now its just mocked up, i wont be able to acutally make the mounting bracket until after i put the rear trunk / spare tire in. and i cant do that until i put the window in. so im at a stand still on mounting it at the moement. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2371.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2372.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2373.jpg |
I feel your pain Zippo. At least you have a an engine bay. Mine is just the body every thing is in the model chassis...
Mounting is/was a pain! The chassis was to long, to short, so i had to drill medium holes in the chassis extender... Mounts are made just not glued to the body yet. I haven't had much time lately. Finally got the stance how i want it. Not much space to do an interior or anything for an engine... http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0262.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0263.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0264.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0265.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0266.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0267.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0268.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0269.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0270.jpg I will be gone for the next 3 days. thanks. |
Update #2
7/30/09 http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0271.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0272.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0273.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0274.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0275.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0276.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0277.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0278.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0279.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0280.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0281.jpg Body is now mounted. the rest of the chassis has been painted. Now i can move on to something else. As you can see there is little to no room to an interior. thanks |
3rd gen Viper gone 4th gen ACR.:D
I started the passenger rear arch first just to see how it looked. That is why that side is farther along than the others. I love the stance :p http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0284.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0286.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0287.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0288.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0289.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0291.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0292.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0293.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0294.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0295.jpg http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/d...r/IMG_0296.jpg thanks |

no one has any comments about these cars? nothing at all?
well 3 sheets of paper and covered in dust later. i need to add a little more putty to a few spots, and i seem to have lost the piece that was on the passenger side by the bumper, i dunno, your guess is as good as mine where it went. it was on there. its starting to shape up nicely. going to take a short break then add the putty, and sand again tomorrow. yay!! and start painting sunday heres the pics http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2650.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2651.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2652.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2653.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2654.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2655.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2657.jpg http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/l...5/100_2659.jpg |
