Steven...Thanks for taking us along on your journey with this build.  I have learned so much and employing some of the little details in a current build of a 78 Corvette Pace Car.

I opened the Defroster Vents and shaved off the hunks of plastic Revell called radio knobs to replace with scratch built knobs...

I have yet a few more details planned that I picked up from you in this build.

Thanks again!

Excellent!!

Thanks everyone!

Your comments are appreciated!

 

Some more minor advancements.

Today, I added a battery ground cable to the engine, the brake line to the master cylinder and the steering box to the firewall.

I then completed the radiator and radiator bulkhead, and weathered the added parts.

 

I'm on the verge of being able to install the engine and firewall into the chassis, and then route the remaining wires and hoses to their terminals.

 

Final assembly is finally ready to begin.

Heya Steve, 

If you don't mind, can you explain these processes that you use to weather the firewalls and engines? I'd love to know how you do this.
