The instrument decals just came apart so I had this photo to print out in scale and cut out the instruments

Mike, I just had a double take.  You already have thread on this build (with replies).  Or are you building 2 identical models?

No, it's the same model. I forgot that I had already started a thread on it.

Looking really good Mike ?

Very realistic looking painting details on the engine and interior.

Just out of the paint booth, so it has to dry thoroughly so it can be polished.

Great looking paint job ??

I had to respray the hood. It came out almost perfect. There's couple of tiny imperfections that need to be polished out. But otherwise the paint cam out so smooth it wouldn't need polishing at all. I took these shots with a light reflecting in it so you can see how glass smooth the paint came out.
