Progress- 1/8th Hot Rod

[pre98zetec]

Mike told me to post this up, so I took his advice and got some pics.

Here's a comparo- 1/24th Nismo rim on the right.



Here's what the dash essentially looked like.



Here's what I'm going to make it look, More modern.



Here is how much progress I have done, I know not a whole lot. I need to get my dremel out and draw the holes, So I can cut a guage pod out.




This thread will be pretty long, as it's a massive kit. Progress might be slow.

Josh, I cant wait to see more. I love this kit. What you have done so far looks pretty slick.

Your dash plan looks great

Little progress, guage pod in. Needs tore out because it's a tad bit crooked. body work needs lots of work, still.



here's a shot of the body, thats a 1/24th scale Honda Odyssey inside.. this things huge.

Fendered with the soft top. I remember seeing yours but the pics no longer work. Did you open the doors and trunk?

I have this kit ( altough the no-Flathead version) and this kit is 3 times bigger than a ordinary kit,so plan for 3 times more work, 3 times bigger sinkmarks e.t.c. Mine is only in Rolling chassis-stage ( Green flake with WWW). I also opened the doors and trunk, and there`s a lot of work to get it right and straight Anyway, it`s a BIG project but yours look very good! Don´t loose the inspiration
