I have a bunch of Tom's stuff. All are of great quality. Just looking at his Fotki album on his casting techniques you know that what you get will be good! BTW, what '59 Chevy sedan kit did you get? I've got one of his roof transkits, but I also have a Hendrix sedan. I haven't gotten it out to look in a long time.

Just FYI, the '03-'04 body on the C5R is different from any of previous bodies as well as the engine air intake is one piece.  The '99-early '00 is the first version they did with the longer hood vents.  The '00-'02 body is the second version which is the one you see in this kit.  The biggest difference is the shorter vents and large air exit area in the hood.  For '03 they added much larger vents over the front wheels, changed the air exit area again, and a few other minor tweaks.  To do a completely accurate '03 you need to do these mods or get one of Scale Productions transkits which already has the hood separate.  They pop up from time to time.  Harold Bradford from HRM did the early bodies and are fairly easy to get.
