Thanks Carl , we’re missing the rain and it’s hard to keep the grass green.

Looks great so far! I like your dash and console details.

Thanks Doyle,. The kit comes with decals for the dash so it makes it easier.

Hey, Dan! I built this one about two years ago. Its a nice kit but I was a little disappointed with the position of the rear wheels.  I should have (and may still) shorten the driveshaft and front of the springs to move the rear wheels forward.  I think I also forgot to thin down the wheel opening flares. Here's a photo so you can see the rear wheel position. Good luck with your build! ?

Nice build, DON'T do nothing to try and correct what you call a problem..Its alsmose unnoticeable..Leave things the way they are..If you do another then correct the mistake..

looks great. I really like the color combo.

Thanks Ken , surprisingly this is the first time that I’ve used this color combination. I’m sure I’m going to have more in the future seeing that I still have a little more than half a bottle of Plum Crazy paint left.

Thanks Wayne I’m going to check it out before I decide if I’m going to move the axle.

I’ve started buffing out the clear coat and worked on the wheels and tires. Plus I’ve started on the engine and did a mock up test. I’ve also moved the rear axle about 1 scale inch forward. 
Thanks for all your comments and support.

You're doing a good job on this one so far Dan. I've been off of the forum for a bit due to work as well as home related issues but I'm making my way back. Sorry I hadn't seen this one sooner.

Thanks Joe. I noticed that you were away and I figured you were busy.

I sprayed the black paint on the front hood area and looks like the humidity was to high when I sprayed so I will have to respray the hood and rear spoiler.
