  3. Thanks Mike, i did build them like 5 times and this one was the most convincing one to me
  4. this a cool project my friend, in my opinion the hood scoop looks fine, probably is too much but for this car looks fine for some reason, looking forward to see updates on it
  5. I want to thanks everyone for the great comments on this project, this project is getting closer to be done, today, i did something that was bothering me around for a while, the exhaust for this car, finally came out with something that looks like the real 1:1 car, i did a lot of different ideas and none of those came out good as this one, simple stuff, evergreen #222 rods for the exhaust pipes, drill a hole at the end to make looks better, add a piece of evergreen 0.15 sheet styrene and there you go, they look great in my opinion...
  6. Thank you Mike, definitely this project was a challenge from the beginning, with all those kit problems, i know i still have some things that i forgot to fix, but i like how this car is turning around...
