Started with the Carpenter 55, flattened the nose and bumper, pancaked the hood, built my own cowl and scratched out the rear air foil. Wired the motor. Made fuel lines and fittings out of bead supplies from Michaels. Scratch built the linkage.
Made the front wheels from top fuel kit wheels and cut the tires to fit. Back tires and wheels from Pegasus.
Made my own decals. Tamiya yellow with dupont urethane clear. Made my own carbon fiber decals for the blower. The motor is a bunch of parts box stuff cobbled toghether to get the look I wanted. I used some roll bar padding but I wont again. Not worth the effort.
Tamiya light gunmetal on the pan and plastikote bright red on the cage.
coverd the air splitter with matt aluminum BMF which was scratch built. Cleared the windows with tamiy clear red. Scratch built the magneto and cage around the fuel cell. Also scratch built the zoomies and injector fuel lines.
