Excellent build! The paint and assembly are fabulous. David G.

A beautiful build Louis! Your use of washes and tinting on the metal parts is excellent as is the detail you've included. The cab lighting is a great addition that really helps to show the detail. Fabulous! David G.

It's such a cool project, I hope you can get back to it soon. David G.

Good progress on this Bill. David G.

Thank you Carl, I appreciate your kind comment. David G.

Thank you Steve. It's nice to know that someone's watching. David G.

Looks great Chaz! An excellent classic hotrod build, love the color combination! David G.

Looks great! Nice color combination. David G.

A gorgeous build, everything looks spot-on. David G.

What a cool build! It's nice seeing something different once in a while. The working pop-ups are a nice touch. David G.

Hello Everybody! I'm beginning to feel as if I may finish this one this year. It would be nice to have one more off the workbench and in the display case, here's hoping. To the naked eye, the color of the hood panels looks like a good match to the rest of the body. The camera however seems to tell a different story. Maybe it's just the lighting, maybe they could use another coat of paint. I'll have to think about it. The hood fit will be addresses during final installation. The boot lid color however, does match quite nicely to the body. As does the seam where the two panels meet. I plan on gluing in place as I can see no reason to be able to open it. As always, thanks for your interest and please feel free to share any thoughts or opinions. David G.

Hello Everybody! Here's a bit more progress on the Rolls. The boot lid is nearly finished. The modifications I made to reduce and even up the gap between the lid and the body have been smoothed and blended to my satisfaction and we're ready for the final primer coat and paint. The paint went on well but it will certainly need a second coat after a bit of color sanding. I just dropped the boot lid in place for a quick color match comparison so it's not properly seated which is why the fit isn't great. But yeah, we definitely need a second coat. As always, thanks for taking your time to have a look. If you want to take a little more time to post a comment, please feel free to do so. David G.

Dang, what a bummer about the paint. David G.

Nicely Done! David G.

Hi Greg. I used Dupli-Color Basic Flat Black on my Tumbler. I think this looks similar to the effect you're seeking. Regards, David G.

Super cool roadster. Kind of a minimalist custom. David G.

Gorgeous paint! Clean, solid looking build, well done! David G.

Nice body design. It has good, flowing lines. I like the working lights too. David G.

Excellent work on this! I love all the little extras you added. David G.

Hello Everybody! Meep! Meep! It's time for another Roadrunner update. The chassis and body have been permanently assembled. The beak will be permanently attached after I get the decals applied and everything has been cleaned up. When attaching the rear bumper, I almost forgot to install the tail lights first. Luckily I remembered them while there was still time to correct the omission. The spoiler is in place but will likely remain unglued to help prevent any future problems during handling, cleaning, etc. That's it for this update. As always, thanks for taking the time to look and please feel free to comment. David G.

It looks fabulous! David G.

It's coming along nicely. David G.

I think it looks about right if you picture a driver in the car. David G.

Good call on the wheels, they should look great. I wonder what's causing the gaps. Worn molds maybe? David G.

Looks good, I didn't even notice the smudge. David G.
