  21. Nice job so far I like how you did the decals. A couple questions if you don`t mind when you scan stuff do you scan at the higest reslotion and when you print is it also as a high reslotion. Want to know and learn how to downsize and print decals I do old drag cars and can use this info to do it for myself.Any tips and help would be great hope you are willing to share your knowledge on the subject. John Pol
  22. Well there are two ways for the earl fittings and the best part they are both cheap ways of doing it. Ok the first idea Plastruck makes a .030 hex rod that would be used for fuel lines .040 hex rod would be used for oil lines. and for elbows you make them from solid rod and make your own 45 degree angle. And for braided fuel line I use braided fishing line whitch comes in black. But you get about 500 feet of it for 4 bucks. All you have to do is paint it what color you want. I get mine from WalMart. I another way to do the earl fittings is crimp beads whitch are silver or gold you can get them from the dollar store or WalMart. If there is any more info you want PM I will help you out the best I can. John Pol
  23. Real nice job done you must real please with it what color paint is that it really pops. John Pol
