6bblbird Posted June 20, 2023 Posted June 20, 2023 The completed car! I'm sure it would have been a real handful to drive! I know that I wouldn't get in it! Still needs some traction bars but I'll get to that. It's pretty much done. 9
bobthehobbyguy Posted June 21, 2023 Posted June 21, 2023 Nicely done. Parts box builds are always fun.
atomicholiday Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 Nice build! Looks like death on four wheels though!?
M W Elky Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 I love everything about it , the fuel tank mount , the early hemi , the silver/blue paint, the 12 spoke, and rear steel wheels, the headers, the lettering , the perfect stance . It’s all period correct. Thanks for building it.
Oliver77 Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 A lot of well-done details here! Digging the chute rigging too.
TarheelRick Posted June 23, 2023 Posted June 23, 2023 Sweet little altered, some real fine modeling. You said you need traction bars, you may also want to consider some wheelie bars, otherwise you will be playing "dead-bug" after a hard launch.

This car represents a time before wheelie bars, it was also a time before guard walls!
Lobo2me Posted July 13, 2023 Posted July 13, 2023 Very nice job! It sure does look like this baby would be a handful through the traps. Love them short wheelbase Altereds!!!
