After picking away at a few kits for about a month this is the one that I'm focusing on. It's getting the engine from a built Revell 55 Chev Pro Sportsman that I got at a yard sale. I took it apart removed the chrome and I'm cleaning it up. I cut the lenco off and put on a 69 Camaro 4 speed. The engine mounts are from the 32 Ford that I cut off and trimmed then added a bit of .040 sheet and glued to the block. This way I can trim the mounts to get the engine height right as the build moves along. I'm thinking of painting the engine mostly different aluminum shades and a yellow body and frame but that could change.

After a little time off from building I got the coupe into the spray booth and I think it turned out pretty good. It's just mocked up for the photos for now. I still need to paint the interior and a few other parts and then the final assembly.
