Fantastic looking model and your paint job is perfect!

Working on another 3d model car with the wheel diameter a bit too large to fit inside the tire. LOTS of tedious carving and sanding.

Yes, Polecat decals have a lot to choose from. Not exactly what I need for the current paint schemes I'm looking for but I'll try and make something work.

There are some unique race cars being made in 3d resin but none of them come with decals. I've searched many model sites for decals but mostly find the usual offerings for popular type racing series. Race cars such as super modifieds, midgets, and NE style dirt modifieds have some exciting graphics but I can't find anything close to it. Anyone able to help me out on this? Thanks in advance.

Very nice looking model and great engine detail.

Very good looking model! Interesting about the paint.

Nahhh, you're not crazy. I have 2 closets like that. Luckily my wife says nothing because she knows I'm constantly building. She comments more on where I'm putting the finished models.

Tracking shows my package is at the Lancaster PA distribution facility on Friday night. Claims I'll get it by Monday 9pm in Oregon. Somehow I don't think so. Not in any hurry to get it but I wonder how the projected delivery date is calculated.

This past week we've had days in the 90's down to the 70's and sunny. The nights drop to 48-50. Once I start wearing shorts I don't go back to pants so the mornings are pretty cold when I take the dogs out.

Great looking model. Your color choice captures the era.

Very nice, clean built model. That interior is great!

He has given me years and years of pleasure listening to his music and I will continue to enjoy even though he is gone. Thanks so much Brian and the Beach Boys. Glad he made it to 82.

One of my little dogs found a dead mouse in the field on our walk today. I kicked at his mouth and kept telling him to drop it but he was having none of that. His solution was to swallow it whole. I freaked out and called the wife and told her to call the vet. When I got home she said to relax. The vet said he might get sick and puke and/or have diarrhea. Oh ok. oh heaven's to Betsy!?! She asked what if the mouse died from poisoning and they told her there probably wasn't enough to be a problem. Again, oh heaven's to Betsy!? And if nothing bad happens it still has to pass out my dogs butt. That's not a problem either? So I get to fret from now until this ordeal passes. Just got to hope things will be alright.

I worked with some Vietnam vets and they had lots of stories to tell. Seemed to be happy they survived it and didn't mind sharing their experiences. I learned a lot of "inside" views from them. One guy had been shot through the arm and a couple of fingers didn't work anymore. Got a disability check from the government every month.

This is what I've used for years from Micro-Mark. Not cheap but they're good.

Yep, that was the culprit for me one time.

Oregon. But, a couple of weeks ago I got some mail in my box for the house across the street. They just moved in so it was a good excuse to meet them. Told them to get used to this sort of thing.

Every time you mention "Highway Star" the song comes to me from the past.....which is a good thing.

We have the Pacific Newt here in Oregon which is brown in color. Had them as pets when I was a kid and was very successful keeping them alive for years. Used to have them around our yard the last 20 years but slowly disappeared as many critters have. Sad.

Good looking model and nice pictures. I built this awhile back and remember it was an enjoyable build. Tamiya kits usually are.

mmmmm donuts. I miss the old days when we had Dunkin Donuts in our city. Filled donuts were my favorite.

A lot of work but you did a great job. Funny thing for me as I've gotten older I don't care for decals as much as before. I've got quite a few models waiting for me to apply decals right now. Not a good situation when I mostly build race cars!

That's a busy paint scheme and you captured it perfectly along with the decals. A very cool looking model!

On my daily dog walk I've wore shorts and a t-shirt, pants and t-shirt and today a jacket because there's been a constant beach mist. The temps are supposed to start rising and this weekend will be upper 80's and lower 90's. Goofy.

Very nice job on this fun kit. Your decals are done well and just the right amount of dirt.
