***ETMC NEW SHOP DRAG CAR BUILD THREAD****

well a few months ago we decided to retire the 94 camaro and part it out and get a new drag car and this is what we came up with::turbonaug









car was a low low 9sec car with the SBC in it on 175 shot. it was one of many of a customers car and he decided he needed to thin out his drag cars so he sold us this car.

it is back half,full tube, full race frame, 17" slicks,all alum and fiber glass car, race weight with the SBC in it and driver was around 2650lbs.

well we have always wanted to do a LS race car so we figured this would be the one to do it to. SOOOOOOOOOO first thing body work and paint job.

If anyone knows me they know im into planes. I was a aircraft mech for over 6 years and love flying . so i took a p51 paint job and put it onto my race car.


here is the plane i copied:





and here are a few quick shots of me painting the car a few weeks ago.








now for the fun time consuming part, the Airbrushing::turbonaug












and the final look
