As I look at the pics, John, it appears the headlight buckets are '62 Chrysler pieces.  I just started casting those puppies.

So many beautiful details all over the place.  I can't decide what part of this model I like best.

[Steve Milberry]

Looks great John. The detail you put in is incredible.

 

BTW, I was kust looking at the thread killing time while I have a bunch of pots and pans soaking in the sink and it came to me where the grille peices came from on the 1/1 truck ,,, Yup, they're the same as the handle on my kitchen sink fawcet !!
