this is an old monogram (i think) roadster kit that i slightly modified. i think i built this back in 1999-2000. the engine is a big block out of a camaro kit. the headers are from a sprint car, with stainless steel turnouts painted white. the rear tires are from a sprint car. i didn't use clear back then, and wiring an engine was a rare thing for me. as you can see, the plug wires are a bit oversized. here's an old johan 62 caddy, done up with an injected hemi, a lenco trans. and tubbed rear end. i built this for a friend in 2001. he wanted it to look like a cartoon drawing, so i sprayed the car with dull coat to take the shine off the paint. remember this guy ? from the monsters contest we had awhile ago ? here's my first attempt at dry brushing shadows. a couple of finksters that i did , before i found out abotu dry brushing. the little rat fink is from the beatnik bandit 2 kit.
