Looking good Chris! when you take this finished build to the shows people will be looking at the cockpit and say "what are those tabs on the frame for?" then they look on the other side and say oh, OK...C B) L...................... Charlie Pro Tech -

Hello, this is Charlie from Pro Tech. I will not make this show but I have a friend that will have a table selling his own stuff and will have a small number of my parts also for sale. His name is Rick Ostman and he will have alot of 1/43 scale, plus 1/25 kits for sale, look for the Pro Tech parts on his table. If anyone that is going to this show and would like to place a Pro Tech order to be picked-up from Rick PM/email me and let me know what you want, I will get it together, let you know the total and you can pick it up from Rick at the show. Please let me know by Oct. 28 so I have time to get orders packaged and to Rick. Till next time, Charlie Pro Tech

Thanks guys for the kind comments! W -409, I agree with you on the fronts also but if I went P/E along with my slow building it would have set me back another 2 months haha....... Batzilla, no I don't have a "Basic Package" for doing an engine but here's what I used for line sizes. - .035 braid with corrosponding fittings for fuel tank to pump and oil lines.. - .025 braid with corrosponding fittings for everything else.

John, this is a very cool build, never know what you will come up with next that's for sure. The belt/bullets are a neat idea not to mention it will keep those at bay that want to get too close a L :o K, watch those eyeballs! hahaha................ Charlie Pro Tech

Cool Cranky, I just started to add light weathering to my drag racing subjects a few years ago and was amazed at the "real world" it brought th the model, This is another area the car modeler should give a try, they might just be pleasently suprised at the end results as I was. Charlie Pro Tech

Thanks guys for knocking the cobwebs off this one. I built this one mainly for table display when I vend at shows. If I could hop in and drive it around town I'd do that too, gotta keep the name out there, hahaha Charlie Pro Tech

Thanks guys for your comments! Chris, no the valve stems (PTMC 72) I've had in the parts line for a couple of years now. Looking forward to seeing more on that F/C your doing a knock-out job on! Brad, the wheel color is Testors Metalizer Aluminum Plate. Afterwards I gave them a mild wash of Polly Scale (charcol color) mixed with glass cleaner. Thanks, Charlie Pro Tech
