I echo what has already been said. It's breathtaking buddy!!!

I can only warn you, if we both make it to Atlanta this year, or when were at NNL East next year, you better keep an eye on it at all times. ;)

Seriously Jay, that is absolutely amazing.....fantastic.....perfection.
Between the movie and this build, I'm really missing big E.

Awesome! I've really been getting into hot rod trucks lately, so I'll be watching this one!

Wow! That is (as usual) some incredible work you've got going on there!
Small detail work done so clean is always highly impressive.

Ismael, this is looking great!
These are by far, my favorite race cars and I'm loving the updates.

I have a few photos that you may find helpful.
Yesterday, I went to the ALMS New England Grand Prix, and got some very up close shots of the C6-R Corvettes, and all the other cars. In the paddock, you really get up close to these.
It was a great day, and I had a pretty funny conversation with one of the Corvette techs about the driveshaft ordeal at LeMans and how they tried to get away with driving the car back to the pits on the starter so they could replce the driveshaft.


Side detail. The large circular hole behind the door is a vent with screening at the opening. Also note the red door latch handle, and the mirrors. On the #3 car, they are yellow with a carbon ring around the glass. On the #4 car, the mirror is completely carbon.

A couple shots with the right side door open. That shiny gold item is part of the air conditioning system.

Rear wing mounts.

And finally, two very cool details.
First is the rear mounted radiator and fan (BTW, your diffuser looks perfect compared to the real thing!)

Lastly, since you're going to open the doors, both Corvette's have an American flag in the inset of the driver's door. That would be a very cool detail to add.

I hope you can use these Ismael.

Thanks for all the great reference photos!
I'm not big on the design of the 599 or the 612, but it does have that prancing horse on it, so I'll definetly be picking up one of these kits.

Does anyone know if the Fujimi kits will be curbside or full detail?
