Keep the radiator the frame color. Nice contrast!

Thanks guys. And ok Tim I will leave the shell the frame color. And not just because it is eaisier for me. : )

Nice looking T. I built one box stock when they were first re-released and am itching to build another one.

Nice! Only thing I'd have done differently would have been to cut out the entire rooftop. Not saying I don't like the way you did yours, just putting it out there.

Cobraman, the radiator shell does look good body color. Things like that can happen when your enjoying a build. l would leave it to. is that the kit engine from the kit? l have not opened mine yet. Excellent progress and its looking great...

[cobraman]

Yes Carl, that is the kit engine. The only thing I changed was instead of using the chrome air cleaners I cut some aluminum tube for the top of the carbs. Chuck.... I thought about cutting the hole roof open but I thought that would be what most guys would do and I thought this way might be a little different and I like different. Bryan my friend I have no doubt that some day you will finish a build. : ) Lets see, I know you have a Cobra almost done and you have the Olds and also the newest one with the Irish theme. How many more do you have in your stash that are started ?

I like the build, just not sure about the colors. I mean the body/frame combo is great, but the blue decals kind of don't match.

[cobraman]

Point taken and I can't say I disagree, I will say in my own defence that I am partially color blind and sometimes I don't see colors the way they really are. I guess I may have to consult with my wife next time to make sure the colors go together. : )

Hello fellow modelers. This one is just about done. Not too unhappy with this one but it ain't no contest winner. Still needs the headlights and the exhaust pipes. The pipes are chrome but I thing I will strip them and paint them black so they stand out a little bit better.

[Road Runner 79]

I like it! It's looking pretty cool.

[cobraman]

Thanks Pat.

Car is done ! I think it turned out ok. More photos will be in the "Under Glass" section if interested.
