good eye, I also noticed that the body line from where the side of the fender meets the side window needs to be reshaped. Thanks for the suggestions.

You are very welcome! After viewing all those cooling looking Cams on NHRA this weekend I got pumped up myself and started doing one myself.
I do believe they will be very popular this year!
Looking forward to the build

Hairy Canary Pro Mod that just rolled out of clear coat. I think the body was a collaboration between Hill Top and Hairy Canary, not sure but I do know it is one bad body.  |

Sam your a "Witch" that thing is awesome. Love the colors and layout. Hilltop gets most of the credit for that body. I told Randy that was one of my favorite bodies. I wanted to do a Blown version of his and got carried away. I think I extended the front out a little and changed the rear deck. Still like Randy's original the best. That was genius how he put the 2010 Camaro roof on a 67 Nova.

Thanks Fellas! Put some paint on my FED this weekend and are trying to finishing up details today. Robert, I put pink gloves on my driver because of you. If you could see his feet..... they would be pink too. The ole inspiring running elephant with pink tennis shoes. LOL Got my rear tires trued up and are ready for silicone. These are some big mama jambas coming in at .644" before silicone. They are sitting on some polished aluminum pro track wheels.  |

Sam, the car is very nice looking. Where did the front wheels come from?

LOL....that is just to funny Sam....I think we all have to admit that Smack Talk has been a lot of fun as it should be. Just some good ole fashion dish it out and take it to. I like the colors on this dragster. Hey, blue and silver like the paper weight...  I do hope you do not have all the problems I have had with that dragster. Good Luck in the race! |

That's one sickass paint job!!! Love the colors!!! Also, I may have changed the top, but HC deserves the rest of the credit on that body...RM |

Has anybody ever tried natural rubber foams aka as Tuna tires in 1/24 drag racing? That's what I have on the back of my FED. When dragging across the race surface (skid test) they feel like they would hook up rather well. I think I'll give them a try this weekend before (if) I coat them with silicone. No worries, they will stay dry. I hate glue and sure as heck don't want any on my track. That's one of the reasons why I like HO drag racing better than 1/24, they are much cleaner.
