[The Creative Explorer]

Finally, after a long, long while I am being able to post something here again! whoohoo!

I hope you enjoy these pictures, I surely did enjoy building this part of car-history. Even though it is a tricky build, all the details make up for it.

I had to go make some popcorn and a Coke, just so I could look at all those pictures. Hey, you did a fantastic job on this. I have one in the box, that I guess I'll have to start on. You've inspired me.

Looks good Erik! I see you got those fussy hood louvers on just right!

[RodneyBad]

See, I knew it found a good home.

Looks Awesome and you have some really good pics.

Louvers looked like they went on quit nicely.

That motor looks great.

Excellent job..

A challenging kit and you appear to have met the challenge and won. Well done.

Would you have any more pictures?

[jbwelda]

wow that is a nice job of what looks like a daunting kit. ive only opened mine a few times but never got brave enough to start it!

let me ask you, i know these cars sat high in real life, and yours i take it was built with the out of box suspension without modifications.

but how much effort would it be to lower this car realistically, that is without gluing tires to the top of wheel wells etc?

do you have a "in process" thread somewhere that shows the suspension being built up?

reason being, i think that when i build mine i will not make it true to life but rather lower it down more, maybe a lot more.

many thanks and yes man what a great job you did of it. that hood is awesome.

Looks good! One of my all time favorites.

Good job on a not so easy to build kit.

Thanks,

You remind me of a grandfather showing the first pictures of his first grandson. They never stop coming....anyway, nice job on a difficult kit to build. Very detailed kit but with more then a few "Oh no's" built into it. My only question, and maybe you mentioned it and I just missed it, is the color...it seems a bit too dark...but maybe it is just me. Anyway, well done.
