started on this before the Powerslide decals were available, finished up last night.

Model Master lacquer Italian Red (because i had a partial can sitting around that i wanted to use up) for the body, Testors flat red for the chassis and cage.

the headers, exhaust, and wheels were purchased from Jim Rogers, they are 3D printed and very nice, IMO.




















had some slight fitment issues with the hood and front and rear glass that required a bit of haggling. stance is great right out of the box.

You did a great job! Man, I sure miss the Model Master line of paint.

Beautiful build.
The aftermarket chassis parts are very nice.

He doesn’t have a website, you will have to email him- he then provides a parts list with prices and you go from there.

Turned out great. Those headers and pipes really make a difference.

I am going the decals for this car and I atill need a couple of contingencies id'd. 1> in front of the front tire it says 'Trick Head Work' on it ??? 2> on the truck deck the oil well image and the white part next to it ???

I know power slide makes these but I make them in all scales and not all my customers want 1:24/25

Thanks Roger

I have the truck stickers now. Thanks
