Hey Now... I just spent some time and open up the package from www.alteredstatesmodels.com/ Top Fuel Hydro... The casting is very well defined with minimal flash. As you look at the photos I did no sanding or cutting to bring the 2 half's together only set the canopy on top with the dog house... So this is now going to be numeral UNO on my bench.. Nov 1st 2008 is dead-line for the Arizona NNL competition. Will keep you guys up up-dated... Chuck Meir of www.alteredstatesmodels.com/ assured me that the canopy windscreen and the w-drive unit is going to be shipped out as soon as it is finish with the new molds for casting...

Hey Now.... I just got the 1st step and massage all the parts that pertains to the hull... Lightly sanded the parts to fit... ("I Stress very Lightly") As you all know Resin Material cuts real quick when sanded so use a finer nail file or a used and abused nail file as I did. I had to file all the flashing and made sure everything fit up correctly secure parts in place bye using masking tape. I still need to address the canopy glass frame because its not a clear area from the casting. Also please excused the dust bunnys inside the lens I need to take camera into the shop for a rigorious cleaning... Fuelish December 30th 2007.................................    |

Awesome builds on there. You wouldnt happen to have a copy of the instruction for the Revell Formula boat would you? I have one that I want to build with custom paint job. You should tell some of those guys to come over to TMM. They have a place to post them here.  |

It is the Revell Mach I Formula One Racing with the Chevy Stepside Truck... On another note... I believe that I am the only one who is building a Top Fuel Hydro... I haven't seen any-one post a boat yet on many Message Boards that I belong too. Fuelish |
