I'm waiting for another pack of foil , after this one was drying out and had numerous wrinkles that fell on the cut sections 

Any feedback welcome

Well folks , I can finally say its finished  !!!! 

I painted the huge smoothie steel wheels  german gray , leaving a nice fat white wall after trying a few different ideas. A chrome dog dish covers the lug nuts adding a touch of shine . 

Overall I'm happy , the hood twisted again after paint ..so it doesn't sit flat anymore but my shelf doesn't care 

Enjoy the pics 20210924_091313.thumb.jpg.021b65f5a4c4a8a37815e970075854d7.jpg

The mcg pre-wired cap gives the  Hemi from Action Modeler plenty of spark and  Detail Masters  chrome Hilborn stacks  allow plenty of cool air into the engine

Nice buildup! I love your engine bay detailing, and just the overall vibe of this one. She's a real beauty. Very well done!
