This was made from a Citroen Traction Avant Not forsure on the year. I got this car off ebay in this condition...



Than I chopped the top, sealed & filled in the rear doors, Cut off the spair tire/Trunk section on the back, Added a fin, & Put in this HUGE engine!

Here is how it turned out...

Very cool! I like the medieval shield on the front, it really suits the car. Nice work!

The Engine is just a tad out of scale, but it looks really cool. John Force would be proud.

thanks so much guys!

Yah the motor is from a 1/16 dragster. So I had to shoe horn it in the 1/18 car Smile . I figured it could be some Crazy super duper Big Block. It involved making a new fire wall , shaving the inside of the fenders, taking out the hood , and a drive shaft that almost kicked my rear end. If this was a real car. I think you would just have to remove the whole block to change the belts. There was just enough room to clear it all.big grin
