Use 0.030” for the handle part if you have it. It looks less clunky and a little more in scale than the 0.040”.

Well that sucks! Your mockup looks great though…from a distance.🥴

Me, myself and I is the main concern of too many people these days.

The city wants to change the zoning laws so that they can grant a permit without any public input to build a 40 foot tall fourplexs in neighborhoods like mine. We are all single or split level homes on 50x100 foot lots. This all came about when the feds decided to hand out cash to cities to solve the housing crisis that they created. Edit: I don’t want to move because I am easy walking distance from a mall and there are lots of stores and restaurants nearby. But if my next door neighbours house got bought and torn down by a developer to build a 4plex…🤬

I would have followed you on that build Jim.👍

Nice project.👍 They were workhorses that’s for sure.

I don’t think that cab represents any real world vehicle, so you can basically do whatever works best for you. Here is a ‘36 Ford for reference.

1 thing I know is that 4 breakfast I 8 yogurt and muffins.

It turned out great looking despite the issues!👍😎

Great looking rig!👍

Super clean looking panel there Tom. Beautiful work all around. I particularly like your leather work on the interior.👍😎

Very nicely done…it looks fabulous!👍😎

Fine looking Ferrari. All the upgrades really add to the beauty of the finished product.😎

Nice stance, and the blacked out bumpers and trim look good on it.👍

Beautiful looking inspiration car! I have one of of these on the shelf also. Looking forward to what you do with it.😎

This is a really cool project Scott. I like to see these old kits built rather than being relegated to a shelf somewhere. I believe improvements and upgrades are fine or even necessary for some kits.👍😎

That turned out fantastic David!👍 I will definitely be referring back to your build thread when I get around to building mine. Thanks for posting your efforts.🙂

That does look great!👍

Looks very nice to me?😎

Here are all the browns that I have.

This is exactly the same process as the easy radiator cap idea. Only this time I used tamiya thin cement to “weld” a 0.16” wide strip of 0.040” Evergreen to a piece of 0.080” rod. Slice off a sliver and Voila! Add a tiny stub of 0.040” or 0.060” for a window crank. https://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/topic/198003-easy-radiator-cap/#comment-2997190 It’s definitely better than what some kits are equipped with.🥴

Yes, this is coming along very nicely! I agree the colors look great!😎 Reminds me of my ‘30 Packard.🙂

Again Lenny comes up with a clever rhyme.🙂

Nice! I really like the look of this Cougar…probably more than the corresponding Mustang.
