Un-dirty word-believable! I love those classic Aussie musclecars. (Monaros in particular, but that's a whole different tale)

This thing is incredible!

Astounding stuff Stump!

What kit is the body from? Is it resin or off a diecast? What scale?
Love the engine bay, the bright green paintwork is a matter of taste!

...if that was a women, i'd want to have sex with it

Can you tell us some more info about the kit etc as i've been trying to track one done here in NZ.
All ive seen here is the Holden HK model which is very expensive to buy just for a body shell.

Smile Thanks..

Hey, thanks guys, this has been a real labour of love(I've owned 4 of these and a hatch in my 1:1)
Been working on this re-build nearly 12 months,
Chrismcgee,most engine bay acc. are from parts box,brake booster,coil,water bottle for w/screen washers,clutch res.,wiper moter,charcoal(pollution control)cannister-front RHS is scrathed.
Motor had lots of mods to get it close,reshaped and bogged heads/rocker covers,heaps of filing/filling to my satisfaction...whew !
The front chassis consists of old inner guards(parts box)plenty of styrene and bogg(filler)
MidnightRacer,RallyRaider, the kit is made by Cavallier(Aus comp.)as a curbside,flat chassis,no detail,it's 1/25 scale but the original wheel/tyre combo looked like 1/28 ?
Pman,yeah I have the Monaro as well,waiting to do,but shit they're expensive here as well,I've paid $75AUS each,just for body basicly,
craazzzy hey....
I fitted the glass(cut from old kits)last night,will get some more pics up shortly......

cheers stump
