Hey Dan, thanks. What is your biggest concern about not spending time on your models? Time? Desire? You are a very talented builder you know!!! :angry:

I have the desire, but between work and my Dad duties, I'm finding I run out of day long before I run out of things to do.

I'll keep pluggin' away until I finish something. And thanks for the compliment, too!

Hey Cruz, mate I like where you're heading with this build.. :)

Absolutely love the colour you chose for it and the allclad gives the headers and bumpers a whole new look..ser-weet....

I feel sure you will work wonders on the newly aquired orange bodied one too mate.

I'll have that new bumper to you very soon Cruz, so you better hurry and get this green one finished....lol..

Look forward to seeing some more of your work my friend.

cheers

Greg

Thanks again Gregg, make sure to include your address clearly on the box or inside okay!!!!

As you guys know, it's an old kit so improvements are always in order. :o

I am also playing around with the motor and transmission mounts, since I lowered this kit drastically I have had to accomodate things here and there :( My next concern is making sure the huge headers don't come too close to the ground!! :rolleyes:

After being away from the desk I finally got a little more done. Had a set of Detail Master Racing Harnesses around and decided to add them to this build. I am just keeping this car with one seat, I am concentrating on eliminating extra weight so when I go down the track I can do it in a faster manner!! :P As per an advice from a good friend, I will be toning the belts down a bit, they look a little too glossy. Added the headers to the engine and also started workin on the glass and BMF!!

Hey Cruz, I had one of those Detail Master Harness sets and finished discarding the stuff, they surely are tedious man, you did good with them. Headers look awesome, any idea when you will be done? :D
