About 2-3 months ago, someone posted a 1/32 Duster Funny Car on HRW Facebook, and since then I've been hooked on the little buggers.
I've since gathered a few, and finally got one done up and ready to race at our next drag event.
It's a modern livery of the Jim Dunn Mooneyes funny car on a 70's Duster body. I think they fit the car pretty well. Decals were done by Slotcar Fever.
While making a brass chassis was a bit of work, the rear tires were the biggest challenge I had. I was able to make a mold of the model kit tires, and made some urethane ones from that mold (our club requires urethane tires).

That is awesome, very nice work!!

Looks Great! Bet it will haul the mail!!

Very Nice!!!!!!!!!!!!

That’s cool!

:text-goodpost: OUTSTANDING WORKMANSHIP :text-bravo: LOVE IT FOR SURE. :text-thankyouyellow:

Yes sir, a mighty fine job.

Excellent concept and execution! Well done, sir.

Thanks,

Say, Tell me about those wheels...They 1/32...? ....NICE build!

........Nice build.......... :clap:

Thanks for the compliments guys, much appreciated!! :music-rockout:

tjettom-yes, the wheels are 1/32. They're CB Design 5 spoke Classics. The rears are 15x10's and the fronts are 15x7's.

Say there...I'd sure love me a pair or two of those slicks...Anybody willing to sell some? Slicks is all that's keepin me from building a couple gassers. Ya know... somebody needs to fill the void of slicks then watch 1/32 dragster racing pick up fast!

Tom

That turned out GREAT!
And I second Tom's comment - definitely wouldn't mind a set or three of those slicks myself!
(haven't dabbled in the casting of urethane yet)
