Thanks for nice comments you guys


Progress to date...

This kit has been great to build. I did add the snaps on the seat cushion casting. I did try a little dusting on one tire. Going to play around some more with that.

The following photo has served for insperation on the look of the engine panels being left off...

Still have some small details to finish up, thanks for looking in!

My first thought was where am I going to put my 6'4" legs in that thing because I want to drive it.

Awesome work Randy!

Hi Folks,

Thanks Mr. T !!

Hi Christian, Got the pipe on!

Thank you Adam

Appreicate it James!

Mike, Thanks my friend!

Hi Dave, These things are tiny! The pics of them racing look kinda funny with the drivers really stuffed in

Thanks Nsmekanik

Phil, Thank you for the kind words!

Thanks Chuck!!



Going off into left field with this update Am going to build a small display for this project. It will be a small section of a auto machine shop. It will be a section of wall and a little piece of floor with a lathe, work bench and lots of junk, the racer will be on jacks......



Broke out the Lego blocks for the structure of the lathe, then sheathed them with sytrene....

Gotta go build a wall!

Thanks for looking in.

So, the truth finally comes out as to how you make your little parts Randy Unbelievably realistic .

Really like the midget . just could not imagine that blue flam under my right hand while initiating a turn . Certainly would have been up in the grandstands


Cheers, Christian

 

[Sharkmouth]

To use Chukw's most appropriate adjective...
Randylicious!

Jaw dropping and awesome

The car looks absolutely amazing, but that lathe is just jaw dropping. I was going to ask you where you got it, as I started at the bottom of your post and worked my way up to see that you scratch build it.
