Thanks Tim. On keeping peace in the family it took around 4 sets of cookware to reliaze that. Could explain the flat spot on the left side of my head.

Wow, you're taking full advantage of all the nice detail in this kit. Calling out the chassis rails in gold was a terrific idea and once you bolted in that well-detailed engine it paid off big time. Can't wait to see more. I suspect your wife must be very pleased with what you're doing with her gift to you.

Thanks for the feed back. Here is the front suspention done.   Here is the rims after I painted the center steel. I left one all chrome to show the differance.  |

Metallic paint on kit chrpome detailing is always a good idea in my book. Those wheels look so much less "model car"-like now. Is the front suspension articulated? It looks like it might be, hanging down the way it is now.

The whole suspention is a full working suspention. Remingds me of a R/C build.

Keeps getting better and better. Nice job hiding the seam down the middle of the body, by looking at it you would never know that body was split down the middle.

Beautiful work! Keep it coming. Know what you mean about the weather. Waiting on a warm day here in SW Mo to do some painting myself.
