RMS Firebird

Postby Reslotted » Wed Jan 29, 2014 11:01 pm

I've just about finished my RMS Jerry Titus Firebird.
Although I do want to change the wheels to SCC wheels with turned down Scaley minilites as inserts, going a little wider at the rear. I want to change those side pipes as well for something more like the 1:1 car.
It still needs polishing. But will wait a few days for the clear to dry.

It's one of Daves Reineckes' bodies, with a modified Scaley Interior, made the cage from solder, has pattos decals and a Pioneer Chassis.

Thanks fellas

It starts with a great body Dave. .
I've popped the screens out again and trimmed them a bit more, so they fit a bit better now.
That Camaro Interior was just a basic one out of the high impact F & F car and required major surgery, but I got there in the end.

Excellent job!!

Getting to that point in my builds, that I have an extra spot out in the back lot.

Thinking this needs to be a future project for the Boyz!

Thanks for sharing and getting the Dundee Crew inspired to order one up!!
