Here's the paint scheme without decals.The white spoy between the two red stripes will have red maple leaf decals.. , ,.

Here's the Avro Arrow paint scheme..I also forgot to put on the two air intakes.

Cool concept!
What size red maple leafs are you wanting? I might have enough red vinyl to chop out a pair.... and send them to Noo Yawk, LOL!

Re: I've started my 1/4 scale dragster
Thanks Mike.I haven't decided how I'm going to do the maple leaf.I know the one that goes on top where the points are will be just a natural leaf . But the one on the sides I think I might distort it.The leaf wide at the bottom and thinner at the top ,Like it's going away from you.I just got a interesting comment from a Canadian forum that if real Avro Arrow enthusiast saw my paint scheme they would basically give me poopie for painting it the way I did.He said the dayglow orange is not the same.I told him it's hard to find Dayglo orange in spray cans.I know the picture I posted looks red but it is a orange color. You know how real dragsters are painted ,Crazy designs.All I did was split the orange and black and put in the Canadian flag design.What ever I like it.Thanks.

Thanks for changing that word. I forgot to change it after I wrote it.

I've enjoyed this thread.
Some very nice work you've done there.
How's it running now?

Re: I've started my 1/4 scale dragster
Hi, Welcome to the forum. I haven't touched it in about 4 years. I had a problem with the gears not meshing properly (Raco gearbox). I know the problem but haven't got around to fixing it. It is finished and I thought I posted the pics, I guess not. lol.
