Is anyone working on the Galaxie '47 Chevy Coupe kit..???

With all of the hoopla and hype and so many people jumping right into building the new '29 Ford kit (I haven't started mine yet), I was wondering if anyone has started in on the new '47 Chevy Coupe kit from Galaxie...???  

I started working on mine yesterday by sanding the faint mold lines and doing some minor dechroming (door locks, trunk lettering, drip rails, smoothed the hood).  My plan is to build a mild Custom (frenched head & taillights, skirts, ribbed bumpers & Sombrero caps from the chopped '48 Ford kit).  I'd love to give it a chopped top, but my skills are not up to that task)  It would be great to see some enterprising resin aftermarketer come out with a chopped top body).

I'll post some pictures when I have a bit more progress to show.

Thanks for the comment guys, and I believe the engine is the 392 Hemi from the Revell Willys kit. The paint is Acapulco Blue Metallic Testors spray paint.
