I am trying to start a new thread but the 404 error is not letting me.

Hello, The screw holes that held the discarded rear wing have proven to be a challenge to fill. Slowly working on it. Thanks,

Looking good!

Love it! That is one heck of a crazy ride! Danke Will

Nice! Love that second RX-7. One of my dream cars when I was a teenager.

Beautiful build! Actually both are!

Now I can't get the Get Smart intro music off my head!

Hi Ken! That is looking really good! I was not aware they were the same. Thanks,

Looking good! Following...

Hello, Unfortunately my dad has been in the hospital for a few days. His asthma is bothering him. Doctors say he is much better now but will most likely be a couple more days. So I took the oportunity to bring him the '51 to cheer him up. He LOVED it! I told him I'd take it back until he was released as an incentive ? The Dr. (pneumologist) came to check on him. Saw the model and loved it! We ended up talking cars for a while. I even showed him this forum. I also brought him a 1/18 diecast I fixed for him. A convertible that rolled over and landed upside down. Send your good wishes to my dad and I'll show him this thread. Not much to do in a hospital anyways.

I like where this is going.

That looks kind of cool. At first it looks like a demo for aftermarket parts. I like the engine and the the exhaust. Are you doing the "inverse" version as well? Thanks,

Looking good! I'm a sucker for proper panel gaps. This car looks great in blue with the white stripes... hint hint...

Impressive work! Love it!

I followed this one closely. That is one gorgeous '55! In fact, so good I will not build one

A real beauty! Great job. Thanks for sharing.

very nice! An all time favorite in WRC

Nice! Love the scene of BTTF crashing Nativity. Thanks for the laugh. Also like the Escape and Golf...

Hello, Filled the gigantic mirror holes (see pics above) by stacking and gluing styrene strips. Body filler was added and finished sanding smooth. After all bodywork is complete, primer will reveal the true progress but that is still a long way ahead. Thanks,

Nice job. Looks good in white. In the test session in Daytona (Roar before the 24) they had them in white but the rumor is that they will run in a retro scheme.

That is one sinister menacing cool looking car! Love it! How about a contrasting thin stripe down the middle? Maybe red or gloss black. Or maybe diagonally across the hood. Very thin, just to pop.

that's one very cool '58!

Hello, My plan is to attack bodywork in several rounds. Round 1: Open what is closed but needs to be opened Round 2: Close what is open but needs to be closed (screw holes, mirror locators etc) Round 3: Real bodywork alterations Let's fast forward about a week's worth of cutting. Of course these will need to be reviewed and adjusted, but round 1 is done: Thanks,

I just spent about an hour carefully going thru this complete thread. No need to repeat how impressive your work is. One of the areas I like the most in this hobby is the research we go thru so our work is accurate. Very inspiring work, techniques and looking really good! Thanks for sharing!

Let the MADNESS begin! One down, about 17 body openings to go! After working the openings, I will have to fill ugly mounting screw holes, mirror holes etc. Thanks,
