    Looks great! Love the interior work. What color is the body? Later-

    Yeah, it's not too far gone. Go ahead and strip it, give it a good sanding and clean it really well. Then you can start over with light coats. I once painted a body 6 times with Tamiya paints. Dropped it, had something greasy on the body, someone gropped something on top of it while drying. You name it...It ended up costing me almost $70 in paint alone but it turned out to be one of my nicest customs. Keep after it! You'll get it. Later-

    Lol! They were "lovingly" called chickens. Funny how an idea gets started in our brains. I say go for it!! Later-

    Declan, Silver with blue chicken would be a great combo. PM sent. Later-

    Got this yesterday on the way home to add to the stash. Off of FB Marketplace for $10. Open but complete. Only the engine halves glued together. Later-

    Your build is looking great so far! What color are you planning? I ended up with the 1/16 Tans Am and the 1/16 Charger new in the boxes when I bought a bunch of kits from a guy off of FB Marketplace. Really have no interest in either one and tried to sell them pretty cheap a while back but had no takers. I'll have to keep an eye on your build just in case I end up having to keep them. Later-

    Ooh! I like that! Later-

    Thanks. Thanks! It does look a bit like that color. Proof that there is "nothing new under the sun". Later-

    Thanks Carl. I remember reading that article. Nice work done to that Pacer. Later-

    Got a couple of 3D printed 572's (stock and blown) in today. I think I may be back on track with this one. Going to try to scratchbuild a twin turbo system along with the 572. Later-

    Got these two 3D printed engines off of FB Marketplace. Delivered today. A blown 572 and a stock 572. Now I can get back to work on my 67 Nova Sedan. Going to try to fab up a twin turbo system for it. Later-

    Thanks! I can't wait to get back on it. Thank you! Thank you Sir. I appreciate it. Always enjoyed customizing my builds. I really like the things you do with your builds. Later-

    Thanks! I'm not sure where the tires are from. They were in the box when I got it. Later-

    Man, that is just perfect! Wouldn't change a thing. Great job! Later-

    That looks SO VERY Nice, Roger! I like the wheel choice too. Nice, clean build! Later-

    Kind of my attitude. I've blown a lot more money on worse things. BTW- I have a few built Vettes that I don't know if they are what you're looking for or not. If I can round them up I'll take a pic and let you look. Later-

    Thanks Carl! Got the first coats of clear on and now to let it sit before wet sanding and another couple of coats. Later-

    I played the idiot today! I had looked at a cool old MPC kit on eBay last week and couldn't understand why it wasn't getting any bids. Then I read the listing and the LAST LINE in the description boldly says BOX ONLY. Well, that explained it. This morning it popped up again on my feed with only 5 min left and still no bids. I went ahead and threw my opening bid in before looking again to remember that it was JUST THE BOX! Oh well, $16 shipped is a cheap lesson to learn..... Later-

    Thanks Scott! Can't wait to get this one on the shelf. Later-

    Looks much better this afternoon. I washed it to get ready for clear coat. No more smudges and finger prints. Later-

    Got this resin Duramax the other day. Nice casting. Plans are to add it to this Chevy build. Later-

    Thanks guys for tuning in. Got some bench time tonight and a Zoom Meeting with Sam I Am. I was able to finish the BMF. Not perfect, but then neither am I. I'll clean up the mistakes with Molotow later. Now I can clean the prints and scuffs off the body and spray some clear. I should be able to finish this in my lifetime. Later-
