Gary is the master of fade paint jobs so he's the ideal person to have done the body. You took it up from there and the result is a really sharp rendition.  It shows why this is such a classic kit.😎👌

Also, for me, it's on my list of all-time great parts kits!

Thanks. I knew I had to paint it up like a real foot.

Gary is an amazing painter and a great guy to talk with.

Thanks for the compliments on my part. I love this kit as a parts kit too.

Haha...that's pretty kewl looking tom.  I remember you showing me that body at the Model car show in Ownensboro.  I like the foot out the back.

Sweet looking build. I have one of these in my stash but am sure it will not come out this nice.

On a kit note, Revell made some really heavy duty steering linkage!!!! LOL

Thanks guys!

Yeah, that is probably the body support bracket you're seeing. It is pretty hefty. The steering linkage was not that beefy, however, I still managed to thin it down a bit for more realism.
