[b1gr3d]

heres the flip nose.
nose up
look at thoe wide rears
daytona vette parts
daytona chasis
should i try to modify this body? i dont have any thin styrene so i cant make the vents open...i dont think i am good enough for that anyway....any suggestions?
my NEW jaacs accord by taiya. my first tamiya model becuase they are damned expensive. went to the nearest hobby lobby (100 miles away) and found this bad boy for $11.00 !!!! not even half price. i got this one and the daytona vette...should i make those wheels 5 spokes? i want it to be a street car

11.00 is expensive for a tamiya? LOL Want to see the accord done, you should take some outdoor pics.

whoops sorry for the post again

no it was originally 27.99 and i was looking for some cheap tamiyas and this one was at the end of the eisle (actually there were 2, prob. should have got both) and i was like hells yeahy i'm gonna get that. i will start ib it when i get these 2 vettes more complete. the cr-5 needs mods and paint on the body and a few little details, the flipnose needs to motor complete and the exhaust will probably have to be scratchbuilt becuase the box ones are retarded looking and dont fit at all

im about to put on the blower and the scratch built velocity stacks on the flip nose !
