Nice one! I had the kit but never built it up. Looking Forward for some pretty Pictures. I'm curious about the color you'll choose.

Nothing to show yet really. I snipped and sanded all the pieces and prepped them with bamboo sticks for holding in the paint booth. The next step is primers, that'll be tomorrow.

No Engine ?

Nope. It's a super basic kit. But the car looks cool so it's gotta go on the shelf 🙂

Must be a Fujimi thing, not impressed by their lack of detail for the price, but to each his own !

I like Fujimi. The Hatsune Z4 racer, Midget II, and Bond submarine car are all Fujimi. But you're right, there's not alot to these kits. It was the cool subjects that made me get them 😄

#3 All the primary colors are done. What's left is painting window frames and blinkers on the side. I also need to paint the interior of the body. The main interior is a dark grey, with black and silver grey highlights.

What do you think about this? I think it's awesome. Super Boss Dragster and Papa Truck, AMT has both vehicles. 😄 Probably going to be my next purchase 😄 [img1]

That looks like a pretty cool project idea Chris.

Oh yeah! I never built one of them. It was a dream of my childhood to get the Superboss...bought the new issue and sold it .
I'd like to see them 🙂

#5 Pieces! There's only around 80 pieces, so should be good for an evening build.

I have the Super Boss in my stash. Always wanted the Papa Truck. A friend of mine is building it now. They would look good together Chris.
Go buy them!

Chris Greathouse
They are only $35 a piece.... $70 is a price of a single Italeri kit, so they would be a steal for 2 (albeit crappy AMT) 😄

#6 Done, photo booth pictures tomorrow..

looks like a realy fast built.
the good thing is, i can take a look at a built one. Not often they were built!
to see, what changes i will do. for example the stance of the rear wheels. in my opinion, they are too wide in the wheelhouse...lets wait for the galery. perhaps the wheels are to small also? Hmmmm…..

up to the next Chris 😉

I see they have the drag truck at Hobby Lobby, and there is an eBay listing for the papa truck brand new for 47$ free shipping ! Great work on the Z Chris ! Looks Great !

Nice job Chris. Another cool addition to the collection. Are thinking of a truck next? Hope so!

Nathan Dempsey
Nice finish Chris. Can't wait to see the dual truck build too.
14 November 2019, 23:07
Chris Greathouse
Thanks guys!!!

@Bob scalehobbyist.com Has both trucks for $34 each and $10 shipping 😄 It will be my next purchase, when more money plops into my bank account 😄

I also need to buy the Italeri Aussie Truck for the group build next year.

@Tom Yessir! The Peterbilt Model 359 Conventi..actor (Revell 85-1506, 1:25) will be cluttering my desk soon 😄 I'm going to try buffing the body this time... I've tried in the past, but I've either cut through the ridges or buffed through the clear and color.... But I'ma try again.
