1:8 Scale Smokey and the Bandit Build Part 2. The Engine.

[@joeaustin4472]

Coming along beautifully, Burt Renolds would be smiling at that I'm sure. Ever since you started this project I've been watching Smokey and the Bandit films over and over.. excellent stuff.. the first is always the best in my opinion. I can hear Jackie Gleeson saying "That's very comforting.. but I'm in high speed pursuit" 😁 😁. Looking awesome, mate keep it up 👏 👍

Need to come up with an AC bracket

[@LCModelBuilding]

Already been trying to figure that out. As well as a dryer. That’s supposed to be right behind the condenser and omitted in the kit

Nice work. Ray's Decals doesn't have the 1/8 77/78 Bandit decals yet. Only smaller scales.

Details, details, details do work....thank you

[@greasercody01]

Wrong... The bandit car had a 6.6 BB400 and a turbo400 3spd automatic smh

[@LCModelBuilding]

Will correct in next video. More if a ford guy l, so yup I messed up there. Thanks for the correction!

[@greasercody01]

Wasn't trying to be a dick it's just Smokey and the Bandit is my absolute most favorite movie and Trans Am's my absolute favorite car.. The way I was raised it was more a documentary about the facts of life.. lol

[@LCModelBuilding]

@@greasercody01 I’m a car but myself. So I absolutely get it! Like I said I know my Fords way better, I do want to be as accurate as possible. I do know they used some manuals though also in the movie, and you can even hear it shifting, but they definitely only ever used an auto on film. I have seen one of the movie cars that was a stick. I also know I am using an incorrect carb, mainly because I couldn’t find a Rochester to print. But I will definitely make the corrections in the next video! Thanks for watching and the corrections.
