mtyoder 12-29-2005, 02:39 PM It's a resin body. I'm not sure who made it. It took two bodies to make this one. The nose has been widened and sectioned. The rear fenders have been widened as well. I also made the wing. Here's some of the to do list: wheelie bars,nose hinge,engine detail,radiator,glass,interior,chutes,paint,wheels ,and some other stuff I cant think of right now. It's powered by a lifelike T chassis that's been glued, hacked, and whittled to fit this ultra narrow body.

sethndaddy 01-16-2006, 10:05 PM that car is absolutely awesome, any plans on doing it in resin when your finished? or is it a one time piece.
And is that a Corian routed track..........nice
micyou03 01-16-2006, 10:36 PM That is wild.
jack0fall 01-17-2006, 12:13 AM Gentlemen, We are truly blessed to see this artiste "Leonardo d'Yoder" masterful skills at work again. :thumbsup:
It would be fantastic if this were molded for repops, not that my modeling skills would come anywhere near yours. :devil:

coach61 01-17-2006, 12:14 AM Very Nice....Make sure you update it when your done!

joez870 01-17-2006, 07:46 AM Mr Yoder, I am not sure how this slick project got by me on the first posting!
Very cool!
I know you are into the drag racing so I would like to know if this car is meant for real competition or just exibition? With all of that work, it sure would be a shame to see it gat all busted up in an actual race.
She's a beauty for sure! :thumbsup:
mtyoder 01-17-2006, 04:57 PM This is a customers car. I'm not sure who makes this body I've seen a few of these done up on scaleracers.com. I've modified this one a lot. I don't do resin casting so you'll have to look somewhere else for that one. This body is so narrow it dosen't fit any chassis I had to cut up a lifelike T chassis to fit under it. I'll try to post a pic. of the chassis next time I post on this one.
T-jetjim 01-18-2006, 08:35 AM mty man- That rear wing is some beautiful work integrating into the body.
Nice job
Jim

Couldn't have said it any better... Those wheels are also the cats meow. They just make that Willy scream "WICKED"...

T-jetjim 02-27-2006, 07:15 AM That thing looks fast standing still. Yoder man, beautiful work, custom front end with axle and guide pin, nice molding of the car and an awesome paint job.
Jim
roadrner 02-27-2006, 09:22 AM Great paint too! :thumbsup: rr
mtyoder 02-27-2006, 06:54 PM I didn't do the paint on this one. I forgot to mention. It's very nice work. The customer knows someone at ppg.
Slott V 02-27-2006, 07:18 PM That thing is sick! :thumbsup:

videojimmy 03-07-2006, 09:50 PM that could be the coolest HO slot car I ever saw. Sell it on ebay.. I bet it goes for at least 200 bucks, if not more.
