Not full size, though

Decided to do this project in my tech class.... i know my teacher well, and building a birdhouse didn't really float my boat..... been meaning to start this long ago when I started, but here we go.

rough Sketches for dimensions:





Original Body cut/ mild sanding



Fender flares/ My personal "5axis" lip kit :






Bondo'd:




It's been sanded and primered now, as have side mirrors been put on... I am desiging a plastic exhaust, and i have since cut out a hole in the bottom for two 9 volt batteries to go to power the head and taillights.
I found a model of a Civic Si that i will be using the rims for, since they are scarily (is that a word?) close to mine...
Got a connect at the dealership and have a buttload of HTM paint, as well as a HOPEFUL idea to maybe put the motor in from the RC car. It was the fastet car ive ever had.

Thoughts???? would love to hear feedback as this is my only schoolwork as a second semester senior

 

awesome! lol

 

Keep up the hard work! I cannot wait to see more pictures and the development of this project.

 

Looking good, keep it up!!

 

yeah its looking good, wish i had the opportunity to do that in my shop class

and u should have used the word "eerily" instead of scarily lol

 

Is that a cake?

 

in for finished product pics....bring that out on the next photoshoot as well

 

if you must ask, it is not.
ALTHOUGH, i do work at carvel, and discovered our car mold for ice cream cakes , so i WILL be making an xB out of that as well in october
stay tuned for that thread
