  20. Thanks John and Bill I apppreciate you guys checking in on it.... I get a lot of motivation and encouragement from all of you guys and I really appreciate it... Well I've been making some progress on this one... I made a fire tank, by one of the tanks from the Chi-Town hustler kit.. it took a lot of grinding with the dremel tool and some sanding but I got it to work... I've also got the fuel cell painted I still need to plumb it and mount the fuel pump.. I've got the seat painted and covered, I still need to do the harness. I got the coil and wire installed, and I played around with the headers with some more shades of alclad to get a little closer to the ref pics.. the I sharpened the tip of a toothpick and painted on the weld beads... I decided to cut the front end off after all my plan is to now glue the hood on and make it a one piece... thanks for looking and comments are welcome...
  21. Great work John... the seat belts look great..... as does everything else....
