Absolutely GORGEOUS! All the little details as well as the paint job make this a 1st Class build! Stance is spot on and everything is clean and neat. Well done 18Degrees! Thanks for posting and keep'em comin'!

the build was a total of about 4 months... some of that delay was attributed to having to order more parts that i either ran out of/dropped & lost... or burnout for a little bit of time. I got down to finishing the engine and stopped to build a Sammy Swindell #1 Kodiak sprint car over the course of a week... woulda been done sooner if not for those delays. _________________ ON DECK/IN THE WORKS: too many started to list...

Very nice!! love attention to detail. Quick question what does the upside-down T and the double TT stand for on the tires? Can't find a reference anywhere. Thanks in advance. |

Those are marks on the tires for the wheel weight locations. The TT is for the bigger weights, the T is for the smaller ones. They are available on a Powerslide sheet. _________________ ON DECK/IN THE WORKS: too many started to list...

Model looks great with tons of little details that sure make a difference. Are these kits curbside? This and the Fusion, I am not familiar with them. Do you have a photo of the underside if that is a detailed part(s)?
Show us more! |
