WOW!!!! Blown..................away!!

Lots of good work went into this one. Looks fantastic Garry!!

Details are at a premium on this one Dann. I know what you're talking about in regards to PE forming and for me the fret retainers not properly filed off. Lookin' good man.

YESSSS!!! Watching.....

Man have I been missing out! Watching this one......

Man it's been a while since I've peeked in on this one. The detail is simply awesome!!

Man the possibilities are literally endless with these panels/ vans. Love the progress Darren.

Thanks Tom. Sorry for the late response. OK guys. Interior is finished. There were several things that I didn't like about this kit in regards to the interior. First off, the ejector pin marks were at the worst possible places. One on each side of the seat bottom???? What tha heck? I managed to cover one of them with the magazine and the other I sanded as far as I dared and still not sacrifice the texture on the seat. Then there were two ugly marks on the flooring which got covered up by the floor mats. Secondly, AMT produced the interior in the boring base model interior. Had to get a little creative with the seat to jog things up a bit color wise. Lastly, the shifter looked like something from a school bus so that QUICKLY got changed out for something a little more sporty by way of scratchbuildinig. The goodies used were more of a distractive measure to make up for and enhance the mediocre interior. All in all I'm fairly pleased with the outcome. Although not my best interior and aside from some minor inaccuracies, I think I made more out of what I had to work with. I've really tried to get this kid involved and knew I was taking a chance by not having him build it along side of me but he lives a ways from me so I figured I'd try to captivate some interest by way of detailed instruction and photos via text messaging. I've gotten the occasional posts that'll say "Cool" but most of the time I get nothing at all. I still send him progress as I've done all along but I think he just wanted me to build it for him and that's ok I guess. Was just hoping to spark some interest is all. In the mean time I'm having fun with the build.

This..............is a great idea!! I really like how it looks. Nice n' sleek.

Continuing to look good Andre. My son is a big hockey fan and we watch whenever we get the chance.

Looking forward to seeing this one Aidan.

Thanks fellas. I appreciate the great comments. Completed the engine this morning.

Thanks Alan! Man what a flip flop of ideas I've had with this build. I had John here on this forum in offer up a Revell 348 in previous posts on this thread which beats the OOB AMT offering all to HECK! I'm most of the way finished with the 348 engine build as of this morning and still need to touch up a couple of areas thanks to the Macro Shots. Progress...…………...FINALLY!! I converted the oil filter from the cannister type to a spin on so I could use a decal and spruce things up a little more. I also added a fuel line and the oil filler tube and cap and pinned the oil filler onto the manifold to keep it from falling off on down the road and touched up that area with the missing paint.

I've been a big Mustang fanatic for decades and have never heard of this car. Very interesting. Will be watching your build.

That's some nice 'n tidy detail work you've got going on in that engine compartment JC. Very cool.

Simply off the charts man. Wow!

Thanks fellas for the comments and pictures. I've been workin' away on this one for the last couple of weeks but haven't posted any progress. I'll see if I can get some of that done tomorrow. Thanks John. I've already got that one. The decals though.....

Good lookin' lil' street rod!

Thanks a lot fellas! Heya Dan. Man at this point I'm just hoping I can actually make it to a show. I've missed every one of 'em that I could go to for the last 2-1/2 years. Maybe 2019 will be the year though. Fingers crossed good buddy.

Man there aint a thing wrong with that!!!!! That looks GREAT!!

Man this is BRILLIANT!! Nothin' like an LS swap to jazz things up a bit. Fantastic display of modeling here.

Will be watchin' this one Les.

Very good lookin' build.

Nice...............on BOTH counts.

Thanks you guys. I appreciate all the very kind comments.
