That is a beautiful car, Randy...and that's no Bulle!:thumbsup:
well....it is a Bulle.....but still beautiful.:wave:

Absolutely AWESOME. Love the color combo. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Ok Hilltop.. did ya build a bigger storage building or what...
Your guys have been turning out some wild looking drag cars lately..
Awsome looking Willys I must say.

The side shown is a medium easy fix Randy! Howz the uther side?

The other side is about the same Bill :(. Luckly I didn't cut up into the side trim :). As I said, it was one of those moments I was enjoying at the time, many years ago. I still enjoy the Fairlane today as is, just an old street rod. I guess that's why I "cringe" at cutting up cars today, you never know what their value might be. Luckly, I didn't cut em all, such as the Olds...RM

Randy,

Very nice Blue, Green, Purple combo. Would drive that for sure any time.
Vroooooooooooom, Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeatch...yeah check out that burn-out.
Nuthin but rubber baby!

I see room for a driver and a passenger in there. :dude::D and maybe a dog in the back?

Bob...woof, woof...zilla

These little beauties were spotted doing some testing at a local track. I managed to get the drivers to slow down for some pics I thought you guys might like. These cars belong to a good friend, unless he beats me in a race, then we'll talk about the good friend part :p :p These are some gooood looking cars :thumbsup::thumbsup: ... RM

Roger,
When you get finished with the boys, please send they my way. I have four or five projects sitting here that could use their touch. ;) Dave

Guys I need some help on this one!!! I spotted this Shadow turning a few laps at a local track. Is this a rare car??? I've never seen a white Shadow before. I can't find it pictured in Bob Beers's book. Could it be a factory error car??? Any imput would be appreciated??? Thanks...RM

Haha! That's cool! Weird story - not long ago, I was flipping through one of several racing car books I've accumulated over the years and found a couple pictures of 1:1 Shadows that weren't black. One was two-tone (black bottom/white top), one was red with L&M sponsorship and I'm almost 100% sure there was an all-white version. Then, Bob...not afraid of his or any other shadow...Zilla posted that 'negative' Shadow, I was like "whoaaaa" and planned on making one - but now I don't have to! Neat!

Kraz, I gotta give Bob...he, who comes up with some crazy ideas...zilla credit. When I saw the negative image you mentioned, I too said, why not, just for a laugh. Actually, the white is better for racing as you can see it on the track. With a few added color sponsor decals, it would shine...just my thoughts...RM

Shadows look good white!!! :thumbsup: Shadows look good just about any color!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: Peruvian Farkleberry is still my fave though!!!:tongue:

By golly Kraz, I had one of those white shadows somewheres in my scrap heap. Hopefully it's still around.

Randy, I never thought for the life of me that a Shadow could look so pretty.

Had Aurora just done that in the first place, they would not be " Buy'm for the chassis-toss the bod in a box-7 dollar epay specials!

I really like this piece!:thumbsup:

Auto World's next great idea for a iWheels edition . . .

Superb execution again -- Randy tell your friend he did a great job :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Randy,

Was so excited to see this Shadow done up in white. WOW! Hilltop Raceway does it again. Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet job man!!

You did this slot car up real nice and it looks Awesum. Yeah I wish AFX would have made this version also but, if they did then we wouldn't be talking about a realy neat white Shadow custom now would we?

Kraz...Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm wonder what this would look like with my Negative button applied...hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm lol gonna go try it now. :D

Bob...have more black Shadows to build some day...zilla (but, they aren't going to be black)

Team Monza picked up another car. Thanks to Skoal, for coming on board with their sponsorship. The boys took the Monza's to the track, for a little testing...RM

Hey Mr. Pop paintjob,

Looking very nice there next to the pit bay area. Skoal racer looks right at home. Lucky car!

Bob...love your track...zilla

Skoal might give ya lip, tongue & throat cancer but it sure looks pretty on a slot car :thumbsup: Killer job as per usual Randy!

Love the Skoal car!! Great looking Monza shop Randy.

Rich

That beats the heck out of Tycos bandit, Randy! :thumbsup:
If the slot car makers of the world put THAT much thought and detail into their finish, we would have to pay 50.00 new for them!
Thanks for sharing! :thumbsup:

Randy,
Great looking action scene. Sweet looking Skoal car...and the background cars are cool too.

Gulp!

I just swallered my plug!

Just another gorgeous car by Randy...LOL!

What I like most about Hobbytalk is that now I'm looking at cars differently than I used to. For example, I always hated the Shadow and would throw them in sets I was getting rid of. Now, I wish I had more of them because ideas for them keep popping into my head. Same with the Monza. I was never really all that fond of it, but now I look at them differently. It's already been said before, but seeing what other people are doing really expands ALL of our horizons.


I still don't think there's any hope for the Peace Tank or Turbo Turn-on, though...................or is there? (by saying that, I'm not implying that I'm going to do something with either of them because I'm not)

Great job on the Monza!

Agreed, great job (http://www.hobbytalk.com/bbs1/showthread.php?t=212249&page=47#) on the Monzas and love that White Shadow! :thumbsup::thumbsup: rr

What amazing work, They look great

Flip these over to this page... All these monzas look awesome, but the newest addition is wicked!! Perfection all the way around!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: Now you need a blue one for the blue lane!!!! LOL!!!

Hadn't thought about about a blue one Sltman, but I like the way you think, one for each lane color. I'll bring up the idea with the boys. Thanks!!! RM

Nice job Randy.Tom

Note to myself i gotta make myself a 2 tone car!!! LOL.. Nice car man!! :thumbsup:

Wes

LOL Wes....2 tone..:p

Randy,
Nice batch of Monza's.. .. I love Monza's..
I have 2 blue ones ...
Might have a little trouble fittin them on the track.
Need of repairs...
The shoes are wore out, the guide pin broke,
and they are outta gas...:freak::p

No really a Spider and 2+2.... I am imagining how they would look 2 tone and fairing..:thumbsup:

The boys got their hands on one of the new Mega G's. These are smooth running!!! The body's are too nice, for now, to be cutting up and repainting. Besides, the boys haven't re-done many Indy type cars. So, we brought this old Bronco in for a custom re-do...We couldn't even get the drivers to get out!!!
Got the front end cut off...

http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc196/kwikdeals/002-15.jpg

Added some plastic to stretch her out...

http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc196/kwikdeals/004-8.jpg

Started opening up the hood, added a rear cover, and a little primer and some sanding...More to follow...RM
