  1. Bird and trees are finally done. A close view.
  2. I know that, I was sarcastic...
  3. Thank you Shaun! I'm still torn... I will make the trim, and after flip a coin .
  4. I can always make it, leave it without and if there is a buyer that offer all that money, (I think it will be easy win the lottery... ) attach the chrome trim. Thank you Kevin! Thank you Ray!
  5. Looks nice, yes the clear will make stand out a lot.
  6. Agree with his good point. I need to flip a coin!
  7. Thank yo Dominik! Tom you have a great point about the replica and accuracy. I'm little torn, the car will be not a perfect replica anyway for a few factors. The paint job, it is as close as I can reproduce it in scale, for be perfect, I should have measure every inches of the paint job on the real car for have a perfect replica. Same for the shade of paint I used, they looks close, but they will be not exactly the same. Also the tires, the kit came with tire without brand. I was able to find thru a friend 5 Michelin X tires from another Fujimi kit, they are periodically correct but who know what the 1/1 car had in origin, it could have Continental or Dunlop. Probably they were Continental (Conti radial tires) because of the missing of other optional on the car. I know that the chrome strip is more noticeable than the tires or paint. Maybe I should make the 3 piece chrome trim like you said for accuracy. Thanks! Here the right side.
  8. Thank you Jonathan! Thank you Andre, I still did not had time to get around it.
  9. Painting the right side of the body. Close view. Hopeful tomorrow I can finish to paint the trees.
  10. Your opinion is very appreciate, now 3 are in favor of the car without strip! And is the option I like better, for the reason the AFX said, the chrome trim, break up the paint. Thank you Danno! The chrome trim was very helpful when I first draw with a pencil the paint scheme on the car.
  11. I notice the tire too. I read somewhere and they said that the car was restored, but is not in driving condition. I always wanted go to the GSL, but for one reason or another I was not able to attend it. Maybe next year I will be able. Thank you Chip! Another one in favor of the car without chrome! Good! I will be careful, it is a one shot opportunity. Thank you Mike!
  12. Great clean job!

  17. Thank you Callon! Thank you David! I'm thinking to do not put the chrome side moldings. What do you guys think? With or without?
  18. Nice start!
