  1. Thanks to everyone for the nice comments... Cheers DanL
  2. Really nice freshly tooled kit with lots of fine detail. Some small issues particularly with the directions, such as showing the valve covers mounting upside down and some unclear mounting spots. The hood with hinges mounted is also very finicky. But all in all a pleasure to build. I obviously used a non-factory color but it turned out well with the white stripes. This was my second attempt at using bare metal foil and it turned out 100% better so I'll keep using it. Remember to wash all your parts before painting ... I ran into some issues with grease or oil left on the sprues. Highly recommended kit

  4. Nice work... I'm just finishing up my build of one of these and it really is a great kit. Cheers DanL
  5. Saw 240 Gordie run many times here in Edmonton and spent my fair share of money at Pacemaker Automotive... Good memories Cheers DanL

  8. a lighter version but it still looks great...
  9. Krylon silver spray paint just like the chassis and engine bay....
  10. Thanks guys... It was also my first attempt at bare metal foil. Didn't go too well and I used too much pressure when trimming the edges. Took me about 2 hours to do the bare metal foil and with the Molotow pen it takes about 5 minutes. I'll try the foil again on my next project and see how it goes. Cheers DanL
  11. Cool is the perfect word to describe this... DanL
  12. I bought this kit for parts to use on other models, so when it came time to build it I had to fabricate the rear end, axle, wheels and exhaust... It turned out a little crude but not too bad for a middle of winter build. A friend of mine owned one much like this back in the day. Cheers DanL
  13. Great build.... looks terrific Cheers DanL
