Time to switch this one up a bit too!, like my other builds, i want to finish and paint ALL of the interiors that i'm working on now....at the same time.

-It looks a mess, but i will fix it all up. I got the seats from the parts bin, the foot peddles from a Fujimi Countach kit, and the steering wheel is from a Testors Lamborghini Sihlouette kit. I will first sand, and clean up all the patrs as individuals, then attach, and SB a new tranny tunnel....let the hacking-up begin!!

I always get impressed with your skills dan! And how much details you put in the model! And this is no exeption! Just stunning! I will be following this as your other builds! For inspiration i can send you this one:

A swedish guy that have a Pantera with a Hemi that is far from stock. He have also made a book about chassis.

Heres another bit of update...

-Photo 1; Since i had to remove the middle of the firewall to make room for the V12 tranny, there was no longer a definite contact location for the center column/tranny tunnel. There is a VERY faint raised area that shows where it should go, but after painting, it would be subject to glue smears, and off-placement....NOT willing to risk that, so i added styrene stock for the perfect job.

-Photo 2; Everything is fitting great!...now its time to repair that hole!!

Hey, everyone!, the main tub is almost done!

-Photo 1; The main part of the tranny access panel is done -time to finish the rest of it.

-Photo 2; Time to get rid of that horribly unrealistic foot well area!...after drilling out the perimeter, i used a PE saw to totally open it up, followed by a knife to klean it up.

-Photo 3; I added the styrene, and my feet feel better already!, lol...now i gotta sand it when its dry.
