Coming along quite nicely, great color choice. David G.

Nicely done, very clean! David G.

That's cool! David G.

Nice paint work and engine detail! David G.

Looking good so far! David G.

Like you said John- I would try very fine wire or try to paint the lines in. The wire inside the twist ties that come in almost every box of garbage bags is soft and easy to work with. I frequently use it for fuel and brake lines. The rest of the project looks great, BTW. David G.

Wild paint! Well done. David G.

Very interesting project. I'm curious to see how it turns out. David G,

Wow, most impressive. I can only imagine the amount of work that went into those. David G.

Nice rust work! The water streaks really boost the realism. David G.

Wow, that is super nice! Well done. David G.

Thank you Al. David G.

Thanks Bill, I'll have to try to keep this in mind for future Revell projects. David G.

Thanks Kevin. I like to think that weathering is one of the things I'm good at. David G,

Thanks John, I think the front axle issue is mostly due to camera angle and the body alignment, With the interior in place, there seems to be no issue with that. I hadn't noticed a track issue, but if there is one, I'm just going to live with it. David G.

Yeah Bill, that does seem to be the problem. Are you saying that I should see about removing material from the bottom of the floor platform and the top of the chassis plate. It looks to me that if I could settle the dash board lower into the interior it would allow the interior bucket to snuggle higher into the body. Hmmm, decisions, decisions. I'll look into both options and consider a combination of the two.. or three. Thanks for the tip, I'm glad to know that it wasn't likely an issue that I created. Nice Impala BTW- they do look good in red, don't they? David G.

I'm processing the dozens of photos I've taken over the course of this project. As I get more of them finished, I'll post them, so here's a couple more. The ride height on most model car kits end up being 2 to 6 scale inched too high. This one is surprisingly accurate. No adjustments needed. Except that now I'm having some trouble getting the chassis to tuck under the body with the assembled interior in place; it seems that the interior is too high in the front. My next plan is to pop the dashboard loose and see if I can re-mount it in a lower position to allow more room for fit. Thanks for taking the time to look and feel free to comment and/or critique. I promise not to cry and stomp my feet David G.

Nice save! It would benefit from some numbers and sponsor decals. Where did you get the wheels? David

Very Cool! David G.

Well done, nice conversion. David G.

Thanks Bill, I love these big ol' bombers too, Weathering seems to come naturally to me. Laying down good paint, now that's another matter altogether. David G.

Thanks John. I don't believe in keeping secrets when it comes to model car tips. David G.

I started with red over white, similar to the box lid but that didn't work out the way I intended. So now I'm leaning toward red. David G.

Nicely Done! Great color and paint work. David G.

Excellent work! It looks nice and heavy, as it should. David G.
