John Teresi Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Art.......looks Great.......you did a great job on making the wood look real.......I think if you should dull coat the wood........ it will look better than gloss......just my opinion.......can`t wait to see it Sun. at the NHRA Museum show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art Laski Posted November 1, 2017 Author Share Posted November 1, 2017 I got the interior floorboard completed. And the tires all finished up. The front wheels are the only parts where I kept the kit chrome, but I toned it down some with Tamiya smoke wash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CabDriver Posted April 6, 2019 Share Posted April 6, 2019 Beautiful work Art - this is the best one of these I've seen built, I think! That wood looks AMAZING, and I like the candy red on the frame. The Alclad came out great on the motor too, really nice job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
