da_ashman Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 That is Very Cool!!! Great Work!!! Looks like a Ferrari Mythos body... Whats the engine from?
blunc Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 I thought the Astra company went with the Pseudo-Ion Thrust Action engine...BEST USE OF SPORKS EVERRRRRR!!!this is a work of art!
charlesdcamden Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Great Scott!!! Now all you need is a hover mode and a Mr. Fusion on the back i love it!
Jonathan Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Might be the best the ol' Mythos ever looked! Very cool!
JTalmage Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Fantastic! Reminds me of an episode of Futurama, where they're at the spaceship/car dealer and the salesman is trying to sell Fry in to buying the Thundercougarfalconbird. hahaha
mr moto Posted April 30, 2016 Author Posted April 30, 2016 Thanks, everybody! I'm glad you're enjoying it but the fact is that I was trumped on all counts by the vehicle that inspired this build. Check out the Studebaker Astral: Here's the secret recipe that I used (please erase your computer memory after viewing this or else the Men in Black will have to do it for you.) That's the Monogram Mythos kit, R&R Resin 1957 De Soto, Revell "Experimental Turbine" kit and assorted sporks. None of the above, except the sporks, are anything to brag about and are best used for unintended purposes. It went together about like it looks. The engine was assembled with a lot of improvisation and a few bits and pieces from the Mythos' Ferrari mill. The instrument pod is one of those TV's from the old Johan kits. Steering wheel is 1960 Dodge. Here are few random photos from the build to illustrate. Again, thanks to everybody for the kind comments. I'm glad you all like it because I sure had fun!
Rider Posted May 1, 2016 Posted May 1, 2016 AWESOME! Simply great exiicusion, and the best use of a Ferrari Mythos. Really great scratching on the ropulsion devise.
unclescott58 Posted May 5, 2016 Posted May 5, 2016 (edited) All right! Tailfins are coming back. Very cool car. I love it. I can't wait for 2057! Edited May 6, 2016 by unclescott58
