Hi Francis! Well, your latch support bracket assembly is so clean, the Chrysler stamping plant guys would be jealous! I just completed the restoration of the body work on a VERY SANO 1/1 Dodge Challenger (1970), and let me tell you that the OEM stampings left much to be desired. I read in a very interesting book about the design and development of the Cuda/Challenger twins that the jobs in the "body shop" section of the factory were the less desirable, because of noise, dust, fumes, etc. Therefore, the more senior employee managed to avoid being dispatched there, and the least experimented recruits ended on that line. It would explain some of the "approximate quality control" on those cars. But yours is a "racer", so finessing the details is allowed. Bravo for the masterful work, and keep on! So much styrene, so little time... CT

how to proceed?

Hi my friend! Thanks for the kind words. I am indeed very attracted to anything that runs at Bonneville. But the sheer variety of 1/1 vehicles there, coupled to the numerous creations by talented modelers make it more and more difficult to come up with something "fresh" for my annual salt car project... I have two on the bench right now, and I think it will surprise a few fellow modelers this coming october at the Quebec model show. We'll see LOL. And going to the salt flats in person is still on my bucket list. Next year maybe? CT

Hi Steve! Well, if the thing "fought you"... it is obvious you fought back with panache! Bravo! CT

Thank you Steve! Indeed, I know the Deley's always favored aluminium over steel, for its ease of hand-forming. Great project. CT
