Nothing real radical here. Just the basic buildup with detailing items, along with lowering the max allowed without hacking into the frame. I had to touch-up some of the paint, and the spot on the hood kinda looks like a bad patch job with Bondo, and then painted-over. Goes right along with the rat theme. The engine is a 283 w/a 2X4 carb set-up, and a 4-speed.
The crowning touch is the antenna made from a pin, with a custom-made fox tail. Thanks for looking! -Shag

1 Plastic Model
1 tube glue(your choice)
1 sheet BMF
1 tube of flocking
1 can spray paint
Shake box for 2-3 minutes to mix ingredients,Allow to dry over night and display proudly. |
