Here are three cars that I finished this past weekend. One is tyco VW bug -herbie Love bug with spoiler (One with new movie that herbie raced with nascars) , One is awesome looking Chrysler 300C (blue) with every details painted - body is resin that I bought from ebay - the chassis is from mattel yellow superbird with high profile wheels painted in silver and last is JL 70 dodge charger dirt body that I had to make (dacsigns inspired me to do it - he made the brown charger dirt body - Check out the quickie conversion - thanks coach61 in this thread) I shaved the wheel wells, cut off the hood, took the glass out and put white painted lexan on the hood to make the body more lighter and its on tyco narrow chassis with white double tape - Its FAST!!!!

Check out three pictures below.. Would like to hear what you guys have to say. :)

I like! The Tyco bug is perfect for the NASCAR version of Herbie. And that 300C is just waaaaay cool... who was the seller? Does it have body mount tabs molded in or did you have to figure out how to mount it?

300C has no body mounts at all but it fit nicely on wide pan chassis.

I will have to check the seller name and i ll email you the name.

Thanks

Very Nice!

The bug looks proportioned similar to the early Tyco bod’. I like it in those colours and the Charger is ready with that scoop—cool!
The new Dodge is the first I’ve seen of that car in a slot. It looks perfect with those wheels! Great choice!

Thanks for sharing! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Cheers..

Hey Wes,
Nice job on all 3, man! I probably should have painted my Charger -- yours would be way easier to see on the racetrack, but I left it the JL color. That 300 looks cool like that. I think it may have hacking possibilities too!
