Invisble Hemi Model
Hey everyone... I haven't built a model of any sort in years. I use to be very into them and rather good but I got older and then real cars took over most of my time and def the majority of my money!

Any way I got this as an Xmas gift and was pleasantly surprised to get back into the hobby. I was just wondering if any of you have done this model and how you liked it. I'm starting it tom.

Does this mean we will see a scratchbuilt 1/4 scale hotrod now?

Yes I got it for Xmas sorry if I was confusing..... I was just wanting to know if anyone in here had already done this model and there thoughts before I started. Here are some pics.

Box it came in:


What I got done tonight and sitting on the base that runs the motor and has the sound card/speaker that plays the sound of a running Hemi.


Valve Cover on wit spark plug boots in:


Head with the valve cover off:


Shot of the bottom end:


I would of liked to pay more attention to the bottom end detail by painting but I did not want any risk of paint gummin up the moving parts or rubbing against and coming off onto the clear plastic.

Well it's coming along good guys and I am finding the model very cool.

I'll keep adding pics as I get things done, if the local Mod wants to move this to one of the Progress forums that is fine too.
