Looks like a great kit and each subsection is a model in itself. Nice work.

Nice extra detailing and realistic painting. Check the fit of th headers to the side pipes before you get too far into it. You may need to add some tubing.

Excellent.

I can understand the frustration with these companies if they are not responsive. HRM is a one man operation and I am sure he is filling the wholesale orders as quickly as he can. People have waited ove a year for reputable resin casters to ship them an order and do not seem to complain. I am lucky to see Harold Bradford almost monthly and have the luxury of dealing with him face to face. I think he wanted to let some else deal with the retail side of the business and concentrate on cranking out the kits and transkits and parts. We all know he does great work and if you have issues with the companies that try to stock his products keep in mind Brad used to only sell at a few shows and to buyers directly.

Get well soon.

Assuming it is this kit any dark color should cover it. However this kit has sink marks so it would be best to primer it.

The autolite version wasn't much different and was a far cry from the real car.

He is in Russia comrade. It is nicely done by DMold Modelworks. Stole this pic online - sorry it is blurry.

IMC GT40 had three engine options.

Not sure whose idea it was to mold in mint green but it would have to be painted to look ok.

Green was a factory color but of course not the lime color it is molded in.

It was based on this kit. I did substitute the rear panel with a copy from the 69 Mach1 custom taillights. If I recall the Iron Horse did not have the GT40 style side windows or mirrors. This was was a rescued glue bomb.

Added some decals.

Pics of display cases and bookshelf. Sorry for poor quality.

It happens but not to worry as the complete kit might have cost about $40.

Quite a project you have taken on. Looks great. Saw this one at a recent show.

Thanks JC.

Amen on a new tool of a 71-72 Mustang. No vents in the hood please would be a start.

I was wondering if that was what happened.

I noticed the "suitcases" in the third picture. Did they have to race with them at Sebring or Daytona?

There is no lack of WIP and finished models by some talented modelers so you are in the right place. Good luck on the recovery. Here is a WIP that while time consuming (masking) I found it was fun to not have to worry about neatness for a change.

Getting close to completion. Just need to find some stock exhaust manifolds , decals, a mirror and finish it up. I must say it has been fun not worrying about a smudge here and overspray there. So far I have only substituted the steering wheel, distributor and tires.

I have done Indy and Falfa but cannot find those pics right now.

Two thumbs up from me.

Still working on exterior detailing and the rest.
