This was a kit I bought several of from Len of Fantastic Plastics for $1.75 each. I like these kits except for the seam down the middle of the body.

After sanding and filling it I painted it Testors Lime Ice and added the decals. The Skull scoop is from our own Scaledetail. Bill, I love these skulls, many thanks bro!!!!

I kept the stock tires and added the reverse wheels and the mags and scratch built the headers. I added the red beads for eyes and the green wiring.

It was a fun kit to build. I hope you like it and feel free to leave a comment.

The headers are basically 4 pieces of sprue connected with a piece of flat plastic. Sorry to say but I had cut up one for the plastic.

I can look around for some more.
