Very cool, haven't seen one of these built in a while, and I bet we all have one! Looking really good, I think your color experiment was a huge success. Keep up the good work!
Everything cool about a hot rod; it's hard to pick a favorite feature. A good example of the whole being greater than the sum of the parts. Did you do the interior parts (aside from the seats) with half-round strips? This model is just fun to look at and explore!
