Joe Amato Top Fuel dragster

Built this one back in 2000 or so? Have no idea where it is now and no idea as to the scheme. I'm pretty sure it was a Revell kit and possibly the Superman paint scheme but the Superman decals fouled up and I made up a red/black paint scheme and used what was left of the decals...I think. I believe it ended up as yard sale fodder after the ex and I split up and I moved out. A whole bunch of my builds ended up that way...shame, really. Would have liked to have kept them but...anyway, that's a story for another day.

Nice clean build. I always have shied away from dragsters because of that exposed engine....and all the wiring that you can do to one of these.

Thanks, Sam.

Nice wiring and plumbing on the engine Mike.

Thank ya, JC. All homemade wiring and plumbing. With the aftermarket stuff that's available now, I'm getting the urge to do another one but the only ones I can find are so damn expensive. I wish Revell would reissue them again.

Nicely done. If you didn't say it was a factious paint scheme, I'd have never known. Still looks outstanding. And the close up of the engine with it's wiring really adds so much to your build.
