Looking great John. I agree with everyone. I'm sure it will be another stunning build when finished. Chris- you're right. It will look great next to your Army FC. Ha.

A great build so far. The chute detail looks good. I see a tiny decal on the valve cover. Looks good. I know tiny ones like that can be a challenge.

Looks great. You say the paint has been decanted a long time. How long can paint be decanted before it has to be used or gets a skin on top ? I've never decanted anything but want to soon.

I like it. Looking forward to more.

Looks pretty good so far.

Echoing what everyone else says - it looks great. I learn a lot from your builds. Is the bracket at the top of the windshield driver's side to hold a box for toggle switches ?

Looks great Brett. I always liked the Missile. What's next on the bench ?

Much better clearance for the firewall Mr. Sobak. That's where I ran into trouble AND in the hood opening. I had to enlarge it to accomodate the fuel lines. You're making great progress and it looks like a good solid build all around, nothing that you won't be afraid to handle.

The paint came out great and I love how you dirtied up the harness for realism. Gotta remember that one. Looking forward to more.

The da Vinci of scratch building. BEAUTIFUL.

Mine is a 2004 GTO with the LS1 engine, K&N intake tube, and poly front radius rod bushings. 113,000 miles.

The mockup looks great. I agree that you need to fix the clearance problems now. I've had to deal with the same thing AFTER the body and tinwork were painted. Engine detail and fuel lines now so you can see any clearance issues.

Looks good. Keep up the good work.

Any updates on this Pat ?? Looking forward to more.

Hopefully it wasn't so hot that your car began to melt while sitting on that chrome scoop. Great job.

WOW. Super results. Once it's done this will make a huge coffee table book that would get well used at this house.

This is looking GOOOOD !! I love the stance and the license plates in the interior. Looking forward to more of this and some rust. Like they say at Rat Rod magazine - in rust we trust.

You did a great job. The paint, stance, white pigment for salt, it turned out great.

Welcome. Looking forward to more of your builds.

Again I agree with all the comments - great stuff. I've learned a lot.

Great progress. I'm sure this build will not let me down. You do great work.

Good update Chris. Would love to see it in person.

Looks great Coyote.

Good score on the airbrushes and compressor Jason. I picked up an MPC 1972 GTO. I plan to build it similar to the silver '57 Chevy in the current Hot Rod magazine. I ordered a 588 BB engine with a Holley Dominator from VCG resins and their 6 spd Tremec tranny. What came today were the AMF tires from Plastic Performance and the Wide 5s from Early Years Resin. Good stuff. I'm getting the ride height laid out now. I've cleaned enough flash off the parts to build another car !! Wish me luck.

The body colors look really good. I'm looking forward to the clear coat to see the final look. The engine looks great too.
