Thank you. The link was an excellent read. I now know my 455 needs to be blue with a dual snorkel air cleaner. It should have the Hurst Dual Gate shifter/ (not sure if/how I will do that). At least I already have the W-30 callout decal correct.

Isn't there some sort of mid 60's Mercury Comet/Caliente/Cyclone that have similar tail lights?

Following. I am about to work on the 455 engine for my 74 H/O. I too would like to know the correct color.

Ooops, I forgot about them! I just cleared both sides so it is too late now.

Thank you Anton and John.

That turned out very nice in spite of what you started with.

Started on the chassis assembly and glued in the interior.

I was contemplating what livery and/or contingency decals to put on it to "decorate" this cake. I came up with the idea of most the products and vendors I have used in the past. So I spent some time and made all the decals from scratch. This is my artwork files dropped on a scanned pic of the hauler. This is the layout as planned. This is the actual layout after experimenting with the decals as printed.

I used to be on the hunt for one of these but I gave up. They were always a bit to pricey. Besides, I already have the double my remaining lifetime stash problem. Nice color BTW.

Those intake and exhaust tubes are way cool.

Nice 67 in my favorite color scheme. Do you have a pic of the box art?

You sir, are a true artist. Very impressive paint job.

Awesome end result. I see that you used some red and white reflective Line-O-Tape. Do you know where one could get some? My roll has 1 maybe two trailers left on it.

I like this. Following.

Myself, I would just make them. The Olympia logo is easy enough to snag from the internet. You would have to do some searching to get the livery wording in the correct font. (unless you were willing to get "close enough")

Thanks guys for the heads up on the issues. I will avoid getting this kit.

Very nice. Did you add the turn signal and shifter levers?

Way cool car and backdrop. Very creative.

Bicycle brake cable. If you need something fatter, then automotive speedometer cable, though I doubt you will be able to wrap it around any scale spools. Another option is lanyard cable for race car hood pins. What you are looking for is called wire rope but very SMALL wire rope. You could also try kite string and dye it grey. It definitely would be flexible enough to spool. Another option would be heavy duty thread for sewing canvass tents and awnings. Good luck on your search.

Here are some pics of wide swaths of BMF going over the diamond plate decks.

Ooops

I ordered another batch of 15 bottles from another ebay vendor. https://www.ebay.com/itm/154697368886?var=454789366072 They did an awesome job of packing them/ The postal service could have treated it like a soccer ball and they would have still arrived 100% intact.

Well done. I am still plugging away on my 74 H/O conversion.

Spending all that money on gas to NOT get to race, What a bummer.

That turned out SWEET!!!!
