Looks great. It will definitely break the neighbors windows. Lookin' forward to the paint.

John, this is awesome. Seeing it step-by-step helps me appreciate all you've done.

Got it. I depend on guys like you that know. The only way to find out is to ask. I've learned a lot on this site. My wife says I'm obsessed. I say I'm just soaking up good knowledge.

I meant the 1:1 cars in the photos. I see yours are not. I'll be the first to admit that I don't know a lot about Pro Mod or 10.5 cars. You are doing a great job and I understand about doing something different. Looking forward to more of this build.

John, if you need any Photoshop work done to create decals, let me know. I use the app every day.

I found .008 banjo strings at a music store, made by GHS, size L08. I used some of it for antennas.

Are you sure they aren't mid-engine cars? That would explain the turbos in the trunk.

Wayne, could the bleed through on the graphics have been avoided if the camo and logo were all on one decal? If it could have, I can put images together in Photoshop for you.

I just had to check my stash after seeing this. I have had that kit collecting dust along with the '55 Chevy Sportsman. If anyone is interested in some swapping, let me know. Maybe I should post this in the trade/swap section.

You guys blow me away with the scratchbuilding. Beautiful. Mr Clayton- nice pants ! I can joke about it because I had a pair of striped jeans in 1970. I think it's great that you are helping him with all these pics for reference. We all appreciate it and look forward to the results. That rail was beautiful and can't wait to see it restored.

As someone said before, only you can see exactly what it needs, but the color scheme and layout look really good. Lookin' forward to more.

Sounds good. Any plans for the engine or paint job?

Hey Brad, I'm with you. Just saw this build today. When I read XKE and Pro Mod together, it didn't sound like the two would go together, but it is awesome. John, I echo the compliments you've read along the way. I will strive to do better work because of guys like you. I wish I could have seen it in person as Chris did.

These are two of the paintings I've done for clients. Thanks for looking.

Chris- I'm a new member after reading this thread. Phenomenal build as they've all said. Can't wait to see more. Years ago I built the Bruce Larson Olds FC and considered giving it to him since his barn full of cars is nearby, until I saw how many people had given him one. Ha. BUT, if Prudhomme ever sees your car, he'll want it.
