Even More MOON Decals!

Found more MOON Decals! Soon after the Decals dried it started raining, the first storm in a series of 4 or 5, and the first we have had in a while. So I took the Body out to the shop and sprayed some Glosscote over the Body and put it in the Dehydrator, before the humidity got to high from the rain.





Fortunately the Glosscote worked Great! Side View...





Almost Finished...

The Last Detail!

I made a Template for the Windshield from file card. When I got the Template to fit I traced the shape on to Clear Plastic. Then I glued it in place.





I replaced the stock Headlights and Lenses with larger Clear Plastic Lenses painted Silver. The new Headlights are sunken in nicely.





Well, MOON Beast is pretty much Finished, so I'll be posting photos of the Finished MOON Beast later this week...

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.

Go to the "Completed Show Rods" Section to see all of the Finished Photos of the MOON Beast!
