Here is the first in custom slot cars I have made using JL or AW bodies.

Nice to see your work. These are all very cool. You've added some touches that really take these right out of the pale box-stock category. .... one of my favorite things to do as well!!

The Sheriff's car really looks great. The others deffinately look better than out of the box too.

Funny, I used the same gold rims and red body vega combo myself... looks nice.
nice work, all the cars look great.

awesome cars man!!! :thumbsup:

I keep coming back just to look at the sheriff's car.

Hey Slotrod good looking car. Would you tell us where you got the blue light?

Looks Great! I love the ideas eveyone comes up with, it gets my brain thinking on what I will do next!!!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: rr

Nice detail slotrod. The Vega with gold accents realy is my favorite. They are all very Cool though. Have a mental vision of the Cobra out running the Sheriff car....Woooooooooosh!

I sent these cars to the StupidSquirel guy on the JL diecast forum here. Will post pics when they make it back to Nebraska. They are getting the PIP treatment Projects in Progress.....can't wait.

I like the wheels you put on the cobra, the driver is well done but I would have went wiith a helmut driver just my opinion but they all look great!

Hey Slotrod good looking car. Would you tell us where you got the blue light?
The blue light is made by Busch. They make H.O. scale cars and trucks. You should be able to order the police light kit. I know it is in the Walters Catalog. Comes with a blue, red older duel lights and new style. I have a firechief car in the works and a new Ford police car. I will post them as soon as I can.

A really nice job Slotrod.

Very neat and super straight! :thumbsup:

Nice cars. Guess I better get busy again :)

Here is some photo's of some of the cars I have done. The second car is JL pullback car. I did the police version before they release the slot car version. I used a light from a junk Tyco police car. Next is the challenger with a Johnny Lightning diecast light bar. The first Fairlane has light set from the Busch kit with police decals I had purchased at a toy show. The last car is a firechief car again using the light kit from Busch. The last is my favorite car 69 Nova. More photo's to come.

How did I miss this thread?! :eek:

These are some very beautiful cars, slotrod! :thumbsup:

Can you tell us some more information about the Busch kits? (what, where, ect?)

Hey no problem. If you have a Walthers Catolog it will be in there HO book on page 730 under Amercan Emergency Vehicles. This kit sells for $5.99. There are 3 kinds but I use the 189-49962 1950's to present.Busch is a company that make H.O. cars for train layouts but they work great with t-jets. Hope this helps and send in your creations. The rims on the Nova are 3-R stuff.

Here are some more cars to view. One is a Fallguy pickup turn tow truck. I have to do lettering for it yet. I also have two hot rods that I used JL diecast rims and Dubcity diecast rims and also the time machine 50's wheel from second movie. Last is an APC (AUTO PARTS CENTER) truck,a company my wife works for. Its like Napa but better and with out Michael Waltrip. They run in there own late model stock car series here in the great white north. Thanks for looking and enjoy.

Nice of you to share your pics (and sources too). ;) nd

Awsome work. Keep it up!!!

I love seeing it.

Great pix Slotrod. Really like the way you did up the trailer of the semi rig. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: rr

I realy lkie that FALL Guy tow truck... where did you get the rig for it?

The rig is from a Wiking H.O. truck that I had as a kid. I found it and made it fit the back box. It will hold a dummy slot car.I want to do some lettering on the truck. How about a Cooter's Garage?

Here is some custom Chevy trucks. One is the Auto Parts Center delivery van and the second is a paddywagon.

nice trucks!

That Paddy Wagon is Sweet!

I've posted a few JLs in other threads but here's a couple more:

Hey Slotrod,
