  1. Hi!, just wanted to tell you that the repair was successful, as well as the clear coating. in a couple days i will mask, and spray the semi-gloss louvers, rear mesh, and windscreen trim/valance. Thanks for following!!
  2. Before i can paint the body, i also need to make sure the wheels/tyres fit... -Photo 1-5; This is the stance i was looking for. I had to trim-out the rear wheel wells, and i will be adding new flares with Milliput. -Photo 6; This is the inspiration. -Photo 7; The tyres are from a Fujimi Porsche 917, and the added rings are from a spare set of Fujimi wheels.
  3. Thanks, Bud!!
  4. DANG!!!.....now that DOESNT look like fun.....better you than me, Bud!!!! LOL
  5. LOL....hard keeping up with myself sometimes! That silver tubing is silver solder....its easier for tight bends, and slight manipulations. Thanks for stopping in, Bud!!, i will be back to this one pretty soon. There has been ALOT of kits/parts that i've been trying get painted, so that i only have to klean the model room once, then i have ALOT of things to assemble....an assault of updates coming!! LOL
  6. Thanks, bud!, it didnt really take too long if i remember right...
  7. Good luck, Bud!!!
  8. Thanks, bud!!
  9. More of an update here, everyone! *Sorry about the jumbled-up photos again. -Photo 1; While taking this chassis in, and out of the body, i discovered that this process was a paint chipping disaster waiting to happen. It has to be one of the tightest fits i've ever encountered, so, since its a VERY basic chassis, i was gonna make things easier by eliminating enough of the fender wells to clear the body easily. Also; notice that i just removed the front contact pins instead of relocating them -they arent needed. -Photo 2; The front mesh is opened, and next will be the new framework for it. Since i didnt want the thin vent on the very bottom, i glued thin styrene over it. -Photo 3; Rear vent is open, and ready for new framework. I know the right vertical looks crooked, but its an illusion. -Photo 4; I used CA glue to fill-in the bonnet vents....the pencil lead filled it in as well, lol. These vents are VERY deceivingly deep. -Photo 5; This is the chin spoiler i made...it will be attached after the vents framework is finished. -Photo 6; Chassis pre-assembly -Photo 7; All my stencils ready to go!
