lambertjr Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 The paint job is outstanding. I'm new to car building so forgive my ignorance, are the flames airbrush? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Metallic Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 I've looked at this build before Jayvee, but i only just realized that it's based on the new tool '57. I saw the old tool blower setup and just assumed the whole thing was the old tool. I only realized it when you said it was a well engineered kit. Upon closer inspection I found the truth. Shame on me. Very nice build, as always! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame on me. Very nice build, as always! Thanks! I always thought that blower setup looked outrageous and it seemed like the right thing to add to the newer tooled kit. I've heard it said that the older kit has more accurate body lines, but the newer kit goes together beautifully and it has a lot of detail parts under the hood (most of which I didn't use)!
