Revell chromed the altered tailights. Sadly, when I handle them even with cotton gloves they lose their mirror like shine. That's the trouble with Revell chrome. Maybe you have to wait a week for it to completely cure before handling whatever you use it on. Or maybe I should have put some Tamiya clear on them to seal them first. Have to try that next time.

David, I've been thinking about your mirrors, but I think I'm a little too late, but I think a very smooth piece of clear plastic with the chrome being applied to the back of it where the chrome color shows through the clear plastic would have made for a more reflective mirror. But I'm sure the ones you do will turn out great. Also, you did a fine job on those table handles. Mark J.

David, wouldn't it be cool if you could find real mirror material to put there for your vanity mirrors. Hard as I try, I can't think of any kind of packaging or anything that exists that you could use for that. But it sure would be neat if you could. Mark J.

David, I think there might be some kind of telepathy going on here. You never know. Mark J.

David, if that pin continues to come off of the hood after super gluing you could drill a hole where the pin was and replace it with a metal pin kind of like the same thing that was an option with the roof antenna. Just a thought. Mark J.

Thanks, Donato and I totally agree with you about the old man stuff. I accept the accusation completely. As I have heard many times, It's tough to get old, but I guess we have no choice. LOL.

Actually, Steve. The driver's window stayed open, but it was the only one. And I think they only did it at Daytona. You can see Marios elbow sticking out a little as he rests it on the top of the door in the photo below.

Cutting very thin strips of .010 sheet styrene . Painting them first with my silver paint pen and then gluing them in place with canopy glue. It's not going to be fun or easy, and I will try not to make a mess with the glue. not looking forward to it.

Ken, whenever somebody makes his own kit, it becomes very interesting.

Looking really good.

Just keep adding more things to do. Just can't seem to move on and finish this thing.

David, I applaud the patience that you exhibit in your modeling. That's a hard thing for most modelers to do. They want instant results right now and want to do a complete build in a weekend. Just crank them out like there's no tomorrow. I have to admit; I'm getting a little like that on my current build just because I am longing to get on to my next build as soon as I can. Mark J

More and more , cowbell.

Man, David. You have that roof looking like a black mirror. Very impressive. If you have trouble keeping that antenna from staying on the roof just drill a hole the same size as the pin and stick it in the hole with a dab of glue. Mark J.

Eventually.
