Hi started this one about 6 or 7 years ago and finally got it finished. This was a nightmare kit to build as the frame was warped, the body was warped and nothing seemed to fit without modification probably why I kept putting it away. Built mainly box stock I added fuel lines and added plug wires. Swapped the headers for some better looking ones from the parts box and drilled out the pipes, also added a different scoop. Not sure what the colour is as my wife had some of her spray cans around and thought it would looked neat on this build. Body half's were warped but managed to get it squared up and made a parachute mount for the rear. Front end just didn't want to fit so I had to modify everything to fit. All in all I think it turned out alright for something I thought I would have to part out. Cheers and thanks for looking Steve. Any comments welcome.

Now that's a nice model. I saw this kit the other day and wondered what it looked like out of the box. You did a nice job. It don't look like that bad of a kit. Looks like something that could be a lot of fun to build.

The end result is well worth the aggravation. That is one cool rail. Great job on the engine detailing. It really brings this one to life
