Body work just about complete. Mock up from last April.

Mission accomplished! It took a while, but its done.

Details: Two Hemi Under Glass bodies needed to stretch the nose
Rear wheel openings moved forward
"Miss Deal" chassis pan, engine, & drivetrain
Tamiya Metallic Green paint with Tamiya Lime highlights
Alclad window trim (looks much better than foil IMO)
Aftermarket Parts: Driver's door handle
Blower belt and pullys
Seat belt hardware
Wrinkle wall slicks

Cool model! I just started doing trim with alclad and I agree it looks better. BMF is still easier, though and less nerve wracking. I like the wheelie stance and the wrinklewalls. Perhaps needs a driver!
