for those unfamiliar with this kind of car, google Peter Brock racing, Bathurst in particular 1970's to 80's

He and Keiichi Tsuchiya are my two favourite racers

The drop tank was made from a spoiler off a frewer racing shell, i just sectioned it to fit
so unusual, that i like it.
I will have to say....Very nice.
As an Aussie, I have to say that this is incredible! Love the paint, where'd you get the supercharger from or is it made by you?
The SLR 5000 is an aussie classic and I love it! Good work, mate.
cheers guys, the supercharger came from a 'Muscle Machine' toy. I bought a few of them many years ago, they came in 1/64, 1/24 and 1/18 with ridiculous sized superchargers and rear tubb wheels. The one on this is from a 1/24 Oldsmobile 442, the 1/18 is a little too big for scale.
