OK I found the time to put the decals on it. The inspiration for this build is shown in the first pic. I filled in the side scoops with perfect plastic putty, sprayed with Tamiya primer and MCW Poppy Red with my brother's air brush. It was my first time using an air brush. Up until now I've only used rattle cans. I've always liked the looks of the Autolite decals so I put them on the front valence. Comments welcome.

Thanks Bob! Yes the only aftermarket part on it is the wired distributor cap, all else is box stock. 

And thanks everyone else for the kind words!

Blown away on your build. Glad to finally see it with the decals. I understand these kits can be a real challenge to build, and you did an amazing job. I recently lost out on one of these kits in the bay. Big bucks!!!
