SCCA Carrera T-Bird..."The Cheaterbird!"

by **HomeRacingWorld** » Wed Dec 19, 2012 8:01 pm

Here is a great project that Cheater has been working on that was just finished.

Some remember the old T-Bird Carrera released years ago. Well...here is his SCCA version!

One example with the top on.

But it looks better topless :)

Moved the motor inline and a host of other aftermarket goodies.

He did a great job!

BTW, Jim...this is OMFG legal.

That is nice!!!

....I've had one "calling" out to me on EBay the last couple of nights...

It was one Carrera I didn't collect and wish I had now.

My next thought is do I really want to pay collector price for it so I can hack into it? :)

Aloha Harry!
What's up with the Porsche Fuch's??? Did they run em back then? Looks good!
Can't wait for the move to NJ this Jan. Will take the 1100mile trec to visit after we get settled in, caught island fever not having any hobby shops on the Big Island, family matters have us moving back to the mainland. Can't wait.
Gotta sell this though can't afford the costs of moving it,

Any taker's?
Aloha
Marty

Looks great! It is giving me ideas for my extra T-Bird I have hanging around.

Any wheel is allowed :) Besides, we are running "restored" models so we can legally have modern equipment :)

Carrera made a racing version of this car I think, but I haven't seen any in a long time. This one is very cool! If I didn't have so many projects I would probably do one. :)

I like the build. How close is that car to scale?
