Incredible work! Just wondering - are you going to give it that “brushed” look, or keep it shiny? -
Thanks for the replies, guys! I may look into buiding a display case.

I have some old 1:25 scale Top Fuel dragsters that I plan on restoring. When I do restore them, I’d like to keep em dust-free. Any advice on storing them?
-
I plan to paint it Testors De Ja Blue. That’s good to know about the chassis and roll cage!
-
Didn’t do much on the engine today. Got the chassis and some interior pieces painted.
-
Here is a quick “mock up” of what the engine will look like with the body.
-
Made a lot of progress on the engine today - I should have it completed tomorrow.

Great to hear, Ron. It’s kinda box stock but - I put the street rod air filters and velocity stacks on the engine, I’ll leave the hood scoop off but still cut a hole in the hood, and I found some Outlaw II’s in the parts bin that I’ll put on it.

Thank you brent. It is a very detailed yet pleasant build.
-
The engine is coming along good. I also got the headers assembled and ready for paint tomorrow.
-
Nicely done. Looks good!
-
Transmission is painted. Tomorrow I’ll work on the engine assembly.
-
I got the engine painted today. Now I’ll give it a couple days to cure, then onto detailing.
-
No problem! Glad I could help!

Thank you for saying that Snake. I wasn’t sure if it would work or not, now I know. The only Cobra 427 kit I have is the Monogram Shelby 427 Cobra Street, and here is the comparison of it. Apologies for the missing parts on the Cobra - it is in the process of getting restored.

Got these at Hobby Lobby today - Paint for an interior, a new flat black touch-up paint, and a fine tip Sharpie to experiment with on panel lines And on my way out, this caught my eye. I also found this very nice diecast 1:24 scale Shelby Cobra at Rite-Aid.
-
Got the engine partially assembled and ready for paint.

Awesome to hear Kevin! There is a lot of knowledgeable builders on these forums, so feel free to ask a question! Can hardly wait to see those Ferraris!
-
Thank you Kevin! I agree, the tubbed chassis is awesome!
-
Thanks Guido! I’ll keep you updated on the build!

I thank both of you for the replies! I will put your knowledge to good use. -
I decided to try something a little different and build a race car. This is an AMT ‘67 Chevelle Pro Street. Here is what I’m starting with.
