AMT Side-By-Side Twin Engined Dragster-WIP

I haven’t built a drag racing car in nearly a year. I’ve been building nothing but customs and hot rods since last summer. I certainly have missed them!

This is actually the third in a series of builds from the AMT Racing Team Special Edition “tin box” double dragster kit. I’m shooting for 4 cars out of a single kit. So far I’ve built two altereds and this is the first rail. It’s pretty straightforward, just the side-by-side small block Chevies but with top mounted blowers. The blowers and injectors are from the AMT ’53 Studebaker kit with styrene rings added to the injector stacks for a little more accuracy. The chain drives are from Competition Resins. I scratch built some blower manifolds.

These AMT kits kind of build themselves and I’m not departing much from out-of-the-box so it should be a pretty laid back project. I’m waiting for some resin Hilborn injector pumps and mailbox scoops from Altered States before I detail the top side of the motors, but otherwise this should go pretty quickly.

Thanx for lookin’,
B.
