Very nicely done, Mike! You can always make a kit that I have no interest in, very interesting.

Nice job.

That came out great! Would love an outside pic so we can really see that paint combo pop.

Thank you Ray and Tom!  Tom, it's a little too cold and cloudy right now.  Maybe when it warms up a bit.

Looks Great!!

Great job on this one!!,looking forward to some outside pics!

[mrmike]

Thank you Dennis and Curtis!  I use to take outside pictures with the model sitting on my pickup truck's bed cover.  I sold the truck last September and have been taking pictures inside in my paint/photobooth.  I have yet to find another spot outside the house to take pictures, but I will find a spot.

I hear ya, I like to do pics on my hot tub cover, I get the angle just right and it looks like a parking lot, but it’s been way too cold or raining/snowing as of late to get good outdoor pics.

Nice. I’d love a real one.

So true. Way too cold out.

I was able to get my hands on some aluminium tubing to make some exhaust tips.  Thank you my friend Paul A.  I took a 2 inch section of tubing, cut it at a 45 degree angle, polished it and inserted onto the kit exhaust.  Done!

Great finishing touch! Looks fantastic.

Thank you Tom!

Like your licence plates.

[mrmike]

Thank you David!  Very easy to make if you have a printer available to you.  Go to Acme Plate Maker @ http://www.acme.com/licensemaker/  and follow their instructions.  Save the image to your computer, resize the image to 0.50 X 0.25 and print it out on photo paper.
