	Aha! I see! Was thinking of parting with this model.. maybe someone there would be interested.
 - 
	Nice build! Only thing I would have done different is to put taller tires in the back to give the car a forward lean.
 - 
	Such a great looking interior to that beautiful sculpted body!
 - 
	Thanks sir! Which national forum was you thinking of? SΓ€varturbo? I believe he did most on his own site and after that FB. You might be right. It might be an import?
 - 
	Beautiful build! One of the best looking fords there is.

#3 1971 Plymouth βCuda βUsedβ to race in France but was sold to Sweden where the guys managed to get JPS sponsors thanks to Ronnie Petersson who was suppose to race with them. During the stay in US before the race they ran out of JPS smokers and only got hold of lucky strike and they went through a bunch of packs to stay awake! Latest issue of automotorsport where F1 was mentioned and the result of Peterssons race was announced is thrown on the floor. -

Great build! Love the beer and crisps! I have wanted to build that car several years but not got around to it due to the amount of work needed, especially since I wanted to build a stocker more than stock car. Have 3 started I believe! Non with those decals though! Need to get them! -

Nice build! - 
	Welcome! I am also from Europe, from Sweden in fact and are 38. Have noticed you have found several of my builds π
 - 
	Thanks man! Thanks Jim! And tanks for following along!
 - 
	Thanks Carl! thanks Andy! Yes it does feel good
 - 
	Nice! What chassis is that? Looks great!
 - 
	Thanks Chris! Thank you sir! thank you sir! Thanks sir! Yes itβs always nice so finishing them up as well!
 - 
	Thanks! Yes itβs a bit similar, canβt remember what manufacturer it was on that intake, found a model on grabcad that I modified for scale model printing and added Al the injectors and stuff. Turbo layout was made by me to have space in the bay and fill it out nicely. and I wanted to display the turboβs which the available nre kit doesnβt. thanks for your comment Thank you for your comment, I appreciate it! Hehe I was thinking of leaving it in front of the axle but thatβs not legal here. But it actually went okay, tried to keep the bends much what you would se on a 1:1, big bends are not possible, and I did put in magnets in several places to keep it in place while fabricating it, which helped allot. Thanks Harry! I liked doing all the small details, and the exhaust hangers did allot in my opinion
