Been working on this for a week or so, it's very close to being finished, first thing is the paint; Touch n Tone orange from the can, interior is Ivory from a can.

Decided to use the 70's spoke wheels, got a couple detailed,

And then I narrowed the rear axle and shaved some off of these crappy excuse for springs.

Something I missed in mock-up, if I put the front axle in its intended spot the tires look to far forward, but if I move it to just behind the intended spot, they look "right". What do ya'll think?

To me, the wheels look better moved back.
