next time you install a windshield or any clear part get you some Elmer's Glue all..(NEVER use that testots glue) you get any on the clear parts before it dry's use a brush and warm water to remove it.. i dont think you will ever remove the testors glue on the windshield so get u some bare metal foil or some tamiya clear smoke and tint just that part..
Dan it does not matter what year of engine you use..first of all its a model. Remember always build your way...I put a Cat 3406 under the hood of my 5600, stretched the cal and added exterior breathers..
from one red neck to another (southern Louisiana on the Gulf) i dont see anything wrong with any of your builds..your little bug i love what u did with it..and your 4x4 car thats something like i would build..i did a van big foot one time with dual tires all the way around. wish i still had it...keep up the great work you doing just fine ken...
