Here are some not so great (out of focus) pictures:

Here are more updates to my entry. The chassis is painted, front and rear suspensions are in place and the wheels have been painted and are nearing ready for permanent assembly. Next comes brake detail, front and rear and additional chassis detail.

Heres more update photos. The engine has begun. The blower is a resin piece from Comp Resins. The pulley system is from Arrowhead Aluminum, the photo etch engine detail set is from Model Car Garage. I exchanged the FC engine with one from a Revell top fuel kit. The detail is far better.

Also, I had to make an adjustment to the body after reviewing some additional research pics. of the real car. The front end wasn't long enough in front of the front wheelwells. So, I cut the front of the body off and extended it.

Quit admiring your replies and views and get to building, you still got a long way to go my brother. The farther backward you can look, the farther foward you are likely to see.

All them build's are looking very nice guy's keep up the good work.

:rolleyes:

just wanted to compliment everyone on their builds, they look great!!!

If i didnt have a few too many NASCAR projects I wanted to complete, I'd would've pulled out a Super Stocker and joined...

Wish I had jumped in too

In fact I was asked to and declined (note to self join next time idiot)

Great work guys all of you are doing a great Job, I love Wayne's funnycar he has a time limit to build something and he is not only going to fully wire and plumb it, just for fun he is going to design and print a set of decals for it, great job Wayne and evry one is doing great work too
