Well that's embarrassing,not only have you more of them painted than me.
( I actually haven't got mine back yet.)
It took me an ice age to realise you'd taken the spare off!

There is a similar unreleased version to make a four wheeled generic race car. But it seemed a little cheeky to release it , as its been made from the three wheeler master.

All that aside its a really fun scheme.

Amazing. 

Are the numbers freehand or Decals?

If they are decals, would you mind sharing where you got then from as I'm chasing some for some race cars.

Thanks, all 8)

Numbers  (and the racing stripes) are decals I made myself. Not difficult  (or expensive) as long as you follow the destructions.

That is so cool! How the heck did you do the wheelie/jump? Seems like something that would break quickly, so how did you make it strong enough? It looks so awesome on this car!

Drilled a hole right through the (metal) rear wheel and it sits on a pin attached on the base. It isn't permanently fixed yet and I'm in two minds whether to glue it down..... *think* it will be strong enough but not sure I want to take the risk  ???

I've never really provided bases for vehicles, but this work of (kinetic!) art has me rethinking things!

What superb stuff on this thread!   :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
