Nice clean build Bob.  Your background (and floor) in your pics really do justice to the car.  Nice photography too!  cheers, tim

Here's a shot of my Eliminator II under construction.  I got to see the real car  race in 1967 at Englishtown.  It ran mid 8's.  That Cammer shook the ground.  I used Dulpicolor paint for the finish.  I applied 2 coats of primer, sanded, 2 coats of color followed by 3 coats of clear.  I applied  the decals before clear coating the body.   The finish will be wet sanded with 2000 grit then buffed.  I have a second model still boxed and may use a body from the standard  1967 Comet Cyclone kit since it has the proper wheel  base. The original car used a standard wheel base.
