I remember when Honda introduced their Formula One effort and all the magazine writers bad mouthed the effort, not foreseeing the engine effort would produce such positive results for decades to come. Love your model Bruce, well done!
Ian Rousel has a cable TV show called "Full Custom Garage" and he is always slicing and dicing very disparate junkyard pieces and then figuring out how to make things fit the design he has in his head.
The 'hack and see if it fits approach' to design brings Ian Rousel to mind.
I like where this appears to be going, especially the roadster with the undercut front fenders leading edges. Looking forward to seeing more.
Met Mr. Gant late that year waiting to board an airline flight and got to play "nascar groupie" while waiting for our flight to board. What an absolute gentleman and fine ambassador for the sport. And oh yeah your model looks fantastic. Excellent craftsmanship!
I have had stress free results using a combination of Bare Metal Foil for the color separation line Using about a half inch wide piece of foil. I then use as cheap a roll of masking tape with clean copy paper to mask against overspray. Have used this technique multiple times and never got bleed through/under.
