2006 Drift Viper

[Kyle]

I started this car about 5 years ago, and just finally decided to finish it.

This is my 2006 Dodge Viper SRT10 drift car. I painted it with automotive touch-up paint from a spray can. The decals were made for me by the owner of Spare Time Hobbies here in Winnipeg. I added a few photo-etch pieces by Model Car Garage, including the spoiler, seat belt hardware, throttle linkage bracket, electric fan, and disc brakes. I turned some parts on my lathe including the engine pulleys, brake booster, fire bottle, nitrous tank, and oil filter. The wheels are from Pegasus. The helmet is from a NASCAR kit. I also added a roll cage.

See my in-progress thread for a few close-up pictures of the engine and interior.

I like it. The paint looks like the same Duplicolor spray can that I used for my Challenger build.

Thanks for the comments guys.

I can't remember the exact colour. But like Steve said, it's a Duplicolour green. Maybe a Toyota colour? I painted this a while ago and the can is long gone.

Steve, almost all of my extended family lives in Welland. It's been a few years since I've been down there, but it's a beautiful place.

Kyle, small world! I'm originally from Niagara Falls myself (a whopping 15 min. away from Welland), but have been living here for the last 5 years. My wife's cousin just happens to be visiting us from Winnipeg at the moment.
