Music helps me concentrate while building and keeps my head free of gremlins.

Terrific idea! I have done something similar for shocks, but never thought to do it for a tapered boot.

That is a beautiful car and a beautiful colour! More of a burgundy though i think. Maybe Tamiya TS-11 Maroon with a pearl clear or clear red top coat? -

NOBLNG replied to Jantrix's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
I have a bunch of kits started that I am modifying mildly to heavily, mostly glue bombs that I picked up at the flea market. I work on them in spurts and intend to complete them all eventually.Brand new kits usually get completed in fairly short order (a month or two?) The only kit I have given up on so far is the Revell “Skip’s Fiesta” ‘55 Chevy that I wasn’t even modifying really.😕 I just got fed up with parts not fitting and poor instructions.🤯 I have since robbed a few parts I think and have no intention of attempting completion….at this point.🤔 -
One thing I wound up doing on mine was separating the front subframe/engine from the floor and installing it after the floor pan was in place because I had glued the front and rear valences in place before painting.

Welcome to the forums Timothy. Great start on your project. It looks like you are taking a very methodical approach to the layout of your frame and cage. They look excellent!👍 -
This forum and YT are a great source of information no doubt. There are also many gifted model builders out there who have never watched a video or visited a forum. They learn by….experience.
