Just finished this one up, painted in Model Masters Sublime Green lacquer with a Tamiya clear coat. Have the rear end jacked up with traction bars and " Cherry Bomb " mufflers and mag wheels for that day two look. Thanks for looking.

No lameness at all. Thanks for your comments!

Day two usually refer to modifications a new car buyer would make after the purchase of the new car.

A real beauty here! This body style is under-appreciated. Great build.

Thanks Rusty.
