I'll kick this one off, but the only "Show Rod" anything i have is this old original T'rantula body. No engine or wheels, so i will need to come up with something, shouldn't be difficult though. The biggest issue is the join lines in the body halves, but once i have joined them and smoothed everything out, i am not sure if i can get the interior back in? ? thinking-hard-smiley-emoticon

Nice choice. I'm sure you'll find some big tires and chrome wheels for it!

Thanks guys, Tom, your getting excited there mate, but i got to let you down gently, only 1 blower, street tyres, but it will have hopefully a mind blowing Candy green striped paint job though..... hope thats good enough for ya. OH, and it's gonna be a HEMI !!! I had to make an adapter for the drag transmission to mate up to the motor. And sorted my wheel/tyre choice too.

Thanks guys, being such a plain old kit, with no real details to do, i figured the only way to make it stand out would be with the paint, i should get on to the engine tonight as i have nearly finished painting the house... phew-smiley-emoticon

Thank you mate. , well, here is a small update with the interior done, and a mock up of the engine. I reckon you could almost get away with painting this like a naked lady too...... thinking-hard-smiley-emoticon It's got a lot of bumps in the right places....
