Thanks guys. I know that it's just getting started, but there seems to always be some little problems here an there. Nothing to big though. Hey Sauber I sure like your detail work. The linkage and hood pins and cables are an excellent touch. I like the look of the spoiler on yours but have not convinced myself to use mine yet. Will just have to see when it gets closer to being done. Hopefully mine will be as clean as yours when done. Again thanks for the great comments.

If it weren't for the black, it be just like Nash Bridges! Nice man! Now you need a little figure of Don Johnson and Cheech Marin

Well just a small update. Got some of the PE parts finished. Mostly the frontend. I think That is the hardest of the PE in the set. The side vents were a little trying also. I still at least one more coat of clear for the final. I at have 3 clear coats on now. I do a final to seal all the PE parts in. The interior is nearing completion, and the engine is really close. I will save those pics for the ending post. Here's what I have so far.
