MOON BEAST is Finished!

MOON Beast started out as a Monogram Baja Beast. I Sectioned It, Chopped the Top, Narrowed It, Cut Out the Windows and removed a Scoop from each side. Then I added an AMT Allison Engine, Tamiya Driver and Drag Racing parts from a few Dragster Kits.

Here are the Finished Photos of the MOON Beast!














More Coming...

Amazing looking Salt Flats Racer ! It should've been built for "real" !

WOW! Very nice build and something that really should've been done in 1:1 !

Just one thing though, when I look at the front it gives a slight impression of being "not quite finished" due to the empty holes where the headlights should be. Maybe cover the holes with old VW hubcaps?

That's All Folks!
Hope you enjoyed the MOON Beast...

Looks great Ira. I really like the power to weight ratio on this one. Wow!

Really neat custom build. I don't know how you guys it do it. It takes me so long to build one box stock I cannot even begin to imagine how long it would take to do something custom like this.
