Thanks for the replies :)
I had the batteries under the back to hold the stance up, I hope the stance will look like that, front will be on the ground because airbags will be deflated. I'm trying to make the cross member a little higher so the engine comes out more and the front can get lower to the ground, B bodies have really big cross members. The Blower belt will be either made from a few fan belts lying around, or use the one from a 68 Firebird.
I know the colour suits the car very well but it will be recovered. I only have the white stripe left (if I can find it) and I've always liked black, blown big block Mopars so....

Haven't done alot, I'm out of glue, near out of most paints and I'm doing a few mods to my old Roadrunner model for my friend.
I've repainted the Hemi and cut the styrene for the tubs. Need glue to go any further.

Thanks, finally picked up some glue today so tonight I will glue those tubs in and do more to my Roadrunner bonnet, I'll take a photo of that too.
Interior will be near 50% done tomorrow.

Thanks for the replies!
The slicks are actually some Tyrell/Yamaha F1 rear slicks, the front tires I don't know where they came from. The wheels came from the Revell-Monogram 78 Firebird Trans Am model, I used some old Snap-Tite Kenworth rig rear wheels to make the rear wheels that deep.
I'm not sure what to do next, probably start the long stretch to make the scratch built front end.

No, the blower came from the kit originally, I may or may not change the carbs, they are quite oversized (came stock with the Hemi) so I might see what the Superbees originals look like on the original blower. The scoop is from the AMT Flipnose, I only glued a small piece of styrene on top of the blower to get a little more raise from the block. Thanks again for the replies, I best go do some more on this.
