Thanks man.  Just need to get some bench time.

Not much progress fellows.  I did get the wheels chromed and I broke the hood back apart in an attempt to get a better fit.  It fits really nice now.  There are 3 hoods in the kit but this is the only one with the detail on the side panels so I wanted to make this one work.  I painted the white letters on the tires 3 time and it doesn't look all that great but that's the best I can do.

Thanks Roger.  I'm getting a little here and there.

I'm still plugging away at this 37.  Just inching my way to the paint.  I got the engine 90% done.  Had to make a run to HL for some 1 1/4" red Ball Pins for the injector stacks.  I guess I lost one of the oil filler caps on the valve covers.

[TransAmMike]

Yep, lookin' great my Friend!

[dragcarz]

I like the injectors, looking good!

Much obliged David.  

[Zippi]

Not much to show but I did get some things glued into place.  I didn't care for the plastic radiator support rods that came in the kit some I cut some paperclips to size and they look Great.  Door gaps have been cleaned out and the black wash is in place.  First coat of Tamiya White Primer has been applied and ready for sanding.  Next will be getting that radiator to fit and still get the hood on. 

[Zippi]

Oh yeah....got some bench time today.  I got the radiator installed, Interior is painted with seat belts, a little work done on the dash, and the big ticket item, I got the Tamiya Chrome Silver airbrushed on the body.  Next will be the clear orange.   

[TransAmMike]

Man, your killing this one....looking awesome Buddy?

[stinkybritches]

Looking good, Bob. Can't wait to see it with the clear orange over the silver.
