Intended to replicate one I built in the 70's that was stolen but didn't have the right parts without buying additional models. So it will be close and probably better than the original. Getting stalled out because of weather and can't paint the body until it gets warmer.

Who would steal models?! Looking good! We were moving (back in 1977) and was running short of trailer space. I gave a box of unstarted models to a neighbor kid. Well when we got to the destination and unloaded the trailer I discoverd two big boxes with more than 40 mostly built models were missing! I assume that the kid may have took them, but will never know. Thing was the boxes contained my oldest built some form when I was around 10. Plus my very first car that was a Christmas gift from my second grade teacher that my Grandpa and Uncle helped me built.

My dad was a general in the air force and we moved every year starting in 72 when I was 10. A lot of my kits were trashed when we moved because of weight allowances. Been on eBay 7 years searching....GOT THEM ALL BACK !! AND THEN SOME!!

Wow that looks like a great start to me! Perfect wheel and tire choice and your stance is just right too. I like how those colorful chassis parts fit so well together on the chassis. Great job.
