Finished this one about a month ago, but my computer crashed, and I pretty much lost everything. It would cost too much to try to retrieve it, so I move on and try to re-shoot all my models again.
I hated this build. I spent so much time on the interior only not to even really see it. I painted what I thought needed to be painted, then after assembly, see that I missed areas that would make me have to take it apart to fix. So, I didn't and hope nobody notices. After all, I didn't till I took the pictures. Putting in a V8 Ford motor didn't make anything easier. Trying to get everything to fit and not fill up the tunnel took lots of sanding reassembly, then the bottom frame parts would pop loose. This car almost met my wall on several occasions. 
I found low light is the best for this particular build due to the darkness of the wood I chose. I was experimenting with a new headlight technique that didn't work right. It looks like both bulbs would be blown, lol. The kit came with an extra box, stool, tool chest, ice chest type of thing that isn't shown on the box or mentioned in the instructions. I built it as an ice chest, of course, with a padded matching top. The red tool box underneath is supposed to be black, but I couldn't see trying to find it on a dark night with it all covered with oil blow by.
It's an interweb thing.....
