Thanks William... I think taking the extra time to do the open vents was well worth while.

Thank you Ralph!

As a note, I am also seriously considering a Gunze Sanyo Shelby Daytona, but man, are they expensive!

Very cool build of this awesome racer, Josh - the opened side windows are a nice touch!

For the extra $50-$75 you can get the HRM kit and have no regrets.  I rarely see the Gunze kit for under $125 and and the prices on Ebay are all over $200.

Really nice work. Even the weathering on the tires is like the one on the pictures of the sotheby's site.

Lol Rex, that post I made about the Gunze became just that... an HRM Cobra Daytona... I am currently doing a WIP thread on it.

Here’s the link to it:
