John... this is one heck of an updated. I don't know where to start. First off I love the rolling chassis it looks so good with the wheels on it. I love the weathering on the wheels and on the lettering, they always look so realistic. Then the engine detail is out of this world. That alcad has to be some of the best you have ever done. The engine looks killer and I love the detail you have added to transmission. As you said it may not be visible once installed but you know it's there. 

I think my favorite part of the update is the seeing that gorgeous engine sitting in that rolling chassis. It just had a Bad A$$ look to it. Very nice update Brother!

Some very cool scratchbuilding going on here.

BTW, just curious... do you actually pay for all the tons of Pro Tech stuff? Or do you get it for free in order to feature it in your threads as sort of a sneaky Pro Tech ad...;)

I got all Goose Bumpely when I checked out the engine. Love, Love, Love the tranny linkage.

It's racing to the top of the "Teresi Top Ten" list. But, then again, every new build does. I'm kinda' pliable like that.

John... That body trim is looking awesome! I can only imagine what this will look like once you body work and paint the whole thing. I know one thing is that you always bring it with your paint jobs and I can' t wait to see it. Keep up the killer work Brother!
