The Roar Before the 24 is on today, so I'll be watching and working on wrapping up my second Ford GT. This is the 2017 Le Mans second place finisher. OOB build with extra decals from Powerslide on the wheels and roof decal from the 2016 Le Mans sheet I have. Paint is Gravity Colors red/white/blue on the body and OZ gun metal on the wheels with Scale Finishes blacks on the chassis.

Very nicely done. The painting has kept me away from this kit, but yours is fantastic!

What is that Lindberg box? And is that a ram charger based 4 door SUV on the shelf?

The Lindberg box is a 67-70 Chevy van.  As for the Dodge, it is a Phantom 70's Ramburban.

I started building it in 1996. Traded it off in 98. Got it back in 2016 in same condition that I had traded it off in.

This is my kitchen table. I live alone [mostly] so I take my meals in either the living room in front of my 50" Samsung, or at Mums or my girls.

 

I spray my stuff at Mums in her basement. I set it up pretty sweet and she doesn't mind the occasional fume or two.

 

And yes, I am this neat usually. Chaos and me have never mixed. It works for some though.

Nice... I moved back to NB a few years ago. I work in Swansea at NAPA Auto Parts on route 6. Come by and say Hi if you're ever here.

Goofing off tonight and made a set of working struts for the tonneau cover of an upcoming 55 Cameo project.

Used aluminum tubing, brass tubing and carbon fiber wire. The CF wire is much stiffer than regular wire so it should hold any weight without flexing.

Later-
