I know what you mean about the never ending nit picking bits when scratch building...and I am not (or ever will be) anywhere close to this level. Kudos to you!👍 Are those door struts you’re making going to be functional? I’d like to know how to make them.🙂 Much appreciated, Bud! I may go functional with the strut, not sure right now...i will give it a go whether i use them or not. By the way, have i ever told you that i like your avitar? we are a Jeep family as well....heres ours...we call him; Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may commandeer it when she wants a new vehicle.🤔 I am making a sort of replica of my truck in the avatar and I may need a couple of struts.

AmericanMuscleFan Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 It's just amazing Dann (I know I'm repeating myself...) but this Super Car deserves all the praises it has received (and will receive)! I was wondering what type of glue you use to join all those styrene parts together? Also, where do you plan to put the gas tank? Will the piping run from the back to the front of the vehicle? Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself but I find this project so interesting...! 😊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
