Thank you, Pierre. I will try brushing it on.

Pierre, Thanks for the information. I bought a bottle of Quick Shine and am eager to see how it works. I do have a question as to how you clean your brushes. I used an airbrush to apply Future and cleaned it with Windex. However, I think you wrote that Windex did not touch the Quick Shine, so I am a bit reluctant to run it through an airbrush at the moment. I appreciate any information you can provide.

Thank you for the comment Brent. I appreciate it. I lower the stance as follows. The back axle assembly attaches to the chassis with screws. I cut off about an 1/8 of an inch from the posts on the axle assembly. The front has the holes for the axle to fit. The suspension piece, I leave alone because it is of a sufficient diameter. I enlarge the holes on the chassis to equal the suspension piece. I find a drill bit of the size of the suspension piece and slowly drill the chassis out. The axles have to be shortened considerably. I put the axle in a vise and a cutting wheel in my Dremel tool and shorten them. I do this by sight, so I do not have an exact measurement for you, but you will have to cut off more than you think. I hope this helps.

I believe that Lindsey Buckingham is very underrated. Fleetwood Mac was built around their vocals and harmonies, but when they let Lindsey rip, he was really good. Go Your Own Way, The Chain and I'm So Afraid are good examples.

This looks really good. I could see this car as a throwback scheme at Darlington.

Looks very good. Good job with the paint and the decals. I remember when Jimmy had a run in with Kurt Busch and he popped Busch in the nose. Jack Rousch being the imbecile he could be at times called the cops. Mayhem ensued. Won't see anything like that today.

Great work! The model really looks the part. I sometimes wonder how many of Schumacher's titles would have gone to Senna had he not passed.

Very nice build. Looks very good.

Great job on both of them.

Great job on this build and the whole collection.

Wow, that is incredible!! The details are fabulous. Certainly museum quality work.

Comfortably Numb was already mentioned, but David Gilmore is also spectacular in Sorrow.

Really beautiful builds. I am really fond of the Gatorade car. This is the one that I mentioned in my post for your other car. Great work!

They had a big crash of the website a number of years ago that took several months to bring the site back up. The activity on the site dropped precipitously afterwards.

Great job!

Great work! Always loved the looks of the Chaparral's.

Great job! Really outstanding. I tried to build the Rutherford Gatorade when I was a kid and it defeated me. I tried again several years ago, and it almost defeated me again. These kits are certainly not for the faint of heart. You did a fantastic job.

Looks spectacular!

Great work!

Mark, if your workspace isn't messy, you aren't doing anything. At least that is what I convince myself.

When I was young, my parents worked many weekends and my sister and I stayed with a great aunt and great uncle. Most of these weekends, they provided me with a model car to build. I don't remember much about the kits other than they were built unpainted. A number of them had the bodies in multiple pieces. I am also sure that these were the gluiest of glue bombs. I remember these times fondly now that I am much older. I know I should have shown more gratitude when I was young, but being a typical sniveling little kid, I did not.

Mark J did an outstanding job building one of these kits. Within his build is a computer generated video on how the systems on these cars work. Here is the link.

Great work. I remember fondly how understated the paint schemes were back in the day.

Thanks for the tips, Mark. I will keep them in mind when I build the kit.

Thank you, Donato. I appreciate it.
