A great looking build so far, despite the setbacks. It's a fun kit, I enjoyed building one a few years back. Best of luck with the new decals. David G.

Kind of an ivory looking top... that looks good. And it lets me keep a sandy yellow if I want. Cool, thanks Len. =D-

Hmmm, the dark red looks good too but what about the top? Tamiya TS-33 Dull Red would work. Thanks for the pic Len. =D-

I too would like to see you carry this one through to completion Tom. Everything you've accomplished so far has been beyond spectacular! David G.

Len, grey is a possibility but I think a creamy yellow-white will have a little more flair. Which is kind of what the Cord is all about. Something very much like the leather in these mittens. Thanks, David G.

Hello Everybody! Here is the final posting for this build. Thank you for your patience and support. Another beauty shot. There is an engine under the opening hood. And last but not least, my traditional Display Case photo. Thank you all once again for your kind comments, patience and support. David G.

That made me chuckle... thanks. =D-

I'm liking the Mr. Color 313 Yellow, it's on my list now. Thanks for posting this Greg, I now have a better idea of which way I want to go. David G.

That looks like a fun rebuild, I'll be keeping an eye out for it. Do you plan on posting in the WIP section? David G.

The interior looks great as does the paint on the body, love the color! David G.

That works quite well Jim. David G.

It's coming along quite nicely. David G.

Nice one! Especially for a quick build. David G.

Fabulous work on the weathering! David G.

The paint looks good, so does the lighting. A question on the lighting. The power source is in the base and works by induction to light the LEDs in the car with no physical connection between the car and the base? 😮 If so, that's really cool! David G.

Hello Everybody! I'm in the midst of a little push to see if I can get my P-61 Black Widow completed for the year so most of my bench time has been devoted to that. Even still, I've managed to get a little work done on other builds; namely my 1937 Cord. A quick color check. Tamiya TS-93 Pure Blue with Tamiya TS-7 Racing White for the interior. I like the blue but I'm not entirely sure about the white. I'm thinking about something a little darker... a little creamier. The blue is pretty much locked in but I'm open to suggestions for the interior. I want a light color. Off-white, no tan or black. Maybe a pale blue... maybe. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to post your comments. David G.

I've always to try one of the larger scale builds but I just haven't found any one car that I like enough to make that kind of investment. Thanks for following along Russ, I'll try not to disappoint. That sounds like a nice experience Daniel. David G.

Thank you Keith. I wasn't sure at first but now it seems to be a good choice. David G.

Here's the link to the finished build, if you're interested. Thanks =D-

Given the effort going into this rear bumper, I'm guessing that it'll be the one? David G.

Wow Daniel! So many little details that I would never think of. I'm guessing that you've built real world competition cars. David G.

Hello Everybody! I've decided on the nose art! It's probably not historically accurate in any way but it's certainly not unprecedented. Historical accuracy is not really what I'm going for with this build. This build is more of a nostalgia trip than anything else and this nose art is something I would have done "back in the day". Besides, who doesn't love a good shark-mouth? Adding the canopy balances it out a little better visually. I had considered drawing the missing details in the gap between the decals. But I decided to leave it as is rather than taking a chance of messing up what I already have. That's all for this update. As always, please feel free to post any comments you have and thanks for taking the time to look. David G.

I'm not sure how I missed this one but now that I've found it and I'm all caught up, all I can say is... Wow Anton! You have some amazing mods going on with this! More than just mods, it's a complete overhaul, like a 1:1 Pro Street. Excellent work so far, great looking pant too. David G.

Thanks for the link Anton, I'll have a look at it later. =D-

Jimmmmm Staaaaaahp! Okay, so now the high-boy bumper has something with which it works. Is there such a thing as too many options? =D-
