Home Racing World

18's and 24's run good on my track, call it the dugout special :banana-rock:

See what I have to live with? He never stops.

Those looks great already!

I have thought about doing something with it Dave. I need to get a new kit as I want the stock hood. I lost the one to this a long time ago.I'm wanting to pattern some of these cars after the AMT modifieds that were released. Maybe we can brainstorm some ideas

Good looking Jalopy you got there David!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Looks like quite the barn find.....

Wayne (Bolton's Speed Shop) :D :D :D

Yeah, it's the same body. Don't feel alone Dave, I'm waiting on rubber at the moment myself.

Hey David!

I wish I could find a 1:1 of that coupe in the Bolton's Speed Shop barn!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

That would be the ultimate old hot rod find.......

It pleases me and makes me very happy that you were able to put these old kits to a good use!

Especially when you have brought so much slot happiness to so many members here on the board.

It doesn't get any better than that!!!!!! :D :D :D

Life in the slot world is definitely good my friend!!!!

Oh, here is a pic of my coupes you sent so far fresh out of the paint booth!

They look like 3 pretty Easter eggs all in a row!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now to decal and chassis and we will be good to go!!!!

Talk to ya!

Hi David!

Thanks!

They were a fun project so far.

Still trying to decide on a preexisting RTR chassis to slide under them?

The scaley T/A chassis matches up wheel base wise pretty closely.

I need something skinny with an inline motor kind of like a monogram cobra daytona or mustang chassis possibly?

I'm still speculating and engineering yet......

Wheels and tires???

Hum.....????

Not sure yet?

But I do think some of those monogram chrome cobra daytona halibrands or mustang wheels would make these coupes go pop with the colors I painted them....

Or some pioneer torque thrust looking wheels would make for a nice hot rod look also......

I'm dangerous when I get to thinkin'...... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Wayne (Bolton's Speed Shop) :D :D :D

Dang you guys!!!

Trying to pull me to the dark side with those brass chassis!!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I do like the sound of that sebring chassis also.

They are skinny,in line and adjustable.......

Perhaps...... perhaps?????

Now you guys got me thinkin' again!!!!

I'm getting all over heated and stuff...... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Getting over the stomach virus isn't helping things either.....

I need more time to think things through.......

Wayne (Bolton's Speed Shop) :D :D :D

Yeah, but guys.....I can't even swim....... :shifty: :shifty: :shifty:

I'm going to have to stay in the shallow end for awhile with both feet on the ground......

Wayne (Bolton's Speed Shop) :D :D :D

That would work. Don't really know if any one wants them. I will say this about it. The early kits (Pyro) are much beter in fitting the body peices to gether than the Lindberg kit,but getting a Pyro on the cheap can be hard. On the Lindberg none of the seams realy line up. I had a heck of a time getting mine (Lindberg) to where its at. Guess just wait and see if anyone asks for them.

I actually like the little car.I'm working on a hood for mine now. As I said earlier, I'm kinda trying to replicate the AMT Mods. I have the firewall back portion of the 32 Ford kit but the roof seems a bit low. I also have the Palmer 36 Ford coupe. Trying to get the body strait enough to try and cast it.

i'm waiting to find a '39 plymouth, or even a chevy.
