Thanks for the compliments guys. There was a ton of modifications with this one, lots of cutting, filing and sanding. I used Tamiya putty which I let thoroughly dry after each coat. I'm pleased that after 25 or so years, it has no signs of cracking . The photo submitted yesterday shows the Charlie Smith drawing from a '87 Hot Rod magazine that inspired me to attempt this build. It took about 2 years to build (weekends only), and was entered into a few shows in 1990/1991.
