joez870 04-02-2008, 06:33 AM More and more yellow cars! WOOT!
I don't get Christians joke about Jasper, but that's ok. Sounded like it should be funny!
Your shadow is looking fine too, Bob!..oh...and if you ever get tyred of that Imp......I have room for it! LOL!
Hilltop Raceway 04-02-2008, 10:11 AM I likes the yellow 65!!! That Shadow seems to be longing for some stickers and wheels, come on Bob...finish me up...zilla!!! Did I see a for sale sign on the 65 windshield??? ... RM
Dragula 04-02-2008, 12:42 PM I watched 3 Jasper engines blow on the same day at Edgewater<our local dragstrip>the car was sponsored by Jasper that blew the second motor!

Hilltop,
Operation finish me up Zilla is in the works man! This thing has just been fun to build so far.
Really enjoyed this build all the way. For anyone New or Just not in the know I just want to make this perfectly clear. Hilltop did this car up and posted it in a thread one day. I saw it and am making my own copy (with Hilltops permission of coarse) as this color combo on the once black Shadow is just Wicked Sweet!
First the brain was freaking out from the "POP" my eyes were transferring to it as, the red, blue and white decals went down.
Then my hands had a blast painting all the detail on this Yellow Monster. :) When you build a slot car it is like a piece of art and this particular Shadow had me at hello.
Now I need to finish up a few more details but, in no hurry because, then this build will be done...oh dang!

Still gotta paint the wing...Dooooh. :rolleyes:
I stripped the body and Phsssssssssssssshed it without even thinking about this little detail. Well I still have some Testors Dark Yellow with just a tiny hint of Kustom Kolors Bright Orange waiting for me to try out my new respirator (Thanks Bill Hall for the reminder of my Winter closed garage door situation) for the finishing touch on this Shadow.
Bob...finish me up...zilla
joez870 04-04-2008, 06:29 AM Nearly there, Bob! :thumbsup:

Bill Hall 04-04-2008, 03:17 PM Awww Bob you were slurring yer words more than WE usually do. Nobody loves a good paint or glue huff as much as me...but I love you man...the "nose glove" is a gotta have in winter!
Beauty Shadow Bob. The little brush touched details really stand out! you and Randy should start a Shadow proxy race...only yellow need apply! LOL
Dragula 04-04-2008, 03:19 PM Bill please dont use that word!
Bill Hall 04-04-2008, 03:21 PM hahahahaha!
Just checking.
RiderZ 04-05-2008, 08:56 AM Heres a pic of a LL Monte Carlo body sitting on a Tyco 440X2 chassis.I think it goes really well with the Tyco yellow rims!:)
bobhch 04-05-2008, 05:43 PM RiderZ,
That car looks very Stealth........................:)
Bob...zilla
Hilltop Raceway 04-07-2008, 10:03 AM Nice yeller R...Z, The boys at the shop would like to have one like that!!! RM
bobhch 04-11-2008, 09:26 PM Took this to the extreme because, I really liked the Yellow Shadow that Hilltop did up a while back. Here is my #22 Clone of his #27 Shadow.
I did ask first before doing this...loved building this and the decals just POPED on the Yell:)w Shadow as they were laid down one by one. What a fun build!!!!!

Thanks Randy for making such a K:cool::cool:L lil' yellow car and then letting me copy it.
Bob...Team Jasper Powered...zilla
joez870 04-11-2008, 09:28 PM Great car, Bob!...but I would have turned the wing decal the other way.....:lol:
Hilltop Raceway 04-11-2008, 10:13 PM Do what Joez??? As you're standing on the side line, with a Mullet Light beer in hand, you hear this wining sound, then you see a yellow spot coming at you, your eyes start focusing, you notice the big rear wing with a logo, as it draws near you see it's a US Air sponsored Shadow, and then it passes and becomes a yellow blur with dust, fumes, and debri flying in a whirlwind as you cover up the Mullet Light and turn away to avoid the track particles. Aren't you glad the sponsor was a coming at you??? Nice work Bob...hey that Shadow looks very familiar...zilla. You know I likes it!!! RM
WesJY 04-11-2008, 11:33 PM bob - very sharp looking shadow you got there! :thumbsup:

bobhch 04-12-2008, 01:41 AM Thanks everyone...can't take credit for the design (Hilltop did that Fantastically) but, did take my time and copied this nicely between other build ups.
http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g282/bobhch/ateam5.jpg
Yeah This is a Yellow thread but, I now want to do a light Blue version of a Shadow with some White black and ? other colors. Not anytime soon though...gotta ton of stuff to finish....oh dang....someday.
Great car, Bob!...but I would have turned the wing decal the other way.....:lol:
Har....you crack me up Joez...the other way...oh man...ha,ha,ha :jest:
Bob...this build was a blast...zilla
tjd241 04-12-2008, 08:43 AM Never really a fan of the Shadow... Until now!! Funny how it takes some aftermarket artistry to unleash a body's potential. That's some nice slot car paint'n fellas. :thumbsup::thumbsup: nd
Bill Hall 04-12-2008, 12:45 PM Really brings the often maligned shadow to life!
Makes ya wonder why they never molded them in colors?????
Nice job Bob and Randy, that's an inspiring car.
joez870 04-12-2008, 01:17 PM yeah, I like yellow. I'd like #22 or #27 in my stable! (see? I'm not greedy. I only need one of them! LOL) They are real beauties! :thumbsup:
RiderZ 04-12-2008, 05:01 PM Nice Shadow Bob! I did'nt know they still made TAB soda!!!:drunk:
Hilltop Raceway 04-17-2008, 07:39 PM Here's a yellow Camaro from Dash. Body looks great except for the oversized rear fenderwells. They seem a little too big in the front, near the door line. Anybody else noticed this??? Just curious...although I still like it!!! RM

joez870 04-17-2008, 08:48 PM Randy, try that bad boy with a set of magna wheels on it! I am still waiting to see someone post that. Sweet looking body! (wheels are cool, too!_
Hilltop Raceway 04-17-2008, 10:12 PM Here you go, AW AFX wheels. They fill it out, just still seems like a little too much radius at the bottom, that's just me, I'm too dern picky!!! I'd still buy it!!! RM

bobhch 04-23-2008, 07:19 PM Hilltop,
Yeah that black one looks sleaky smooth and real nice :)
Bob...isn't this a yellow thread LOL...zilla
hojoe 05-07-2008, 10:12 PM I just finished up this 46 FORD and I felt it belonged in this thread. I love to rip the top off of stuff. I left the black under the yellow and after six coats of paint the only black you can still see is at the seams, which I like. It kinda gives the car deffinition. It sure was fun to do.
hojoe
joez870 05-08-2008, 05:53 AM Yup! belongs here! Nice looking raggy! :thumbsup:
win43 05-08-2008, 08:18 PM Just something about those Dash Camaros....yellow or black or any other color....they just don't seem quite right. But I love all the yellow cars. :)
win43 05-08-2008, 08:22 PM Here's a yellow Willys I cut the top off of.
Hilltop Raceway 05-08-2008, 08:59 PM Mmmmmmmm...gooooood!!! Yellow!!! Nice rag tops, Willys and 46!!! Just my thoughts...RM
bobhch 05-08-2008, 10:34 PM Here's a yellow Willys I cut the top off of.
Win,
Nice chop, chop Willys. Have been meaning to do one of these...someday.:)
