As close as I can get to a mock-up for now.

Thanks DJ, happy to have the day off today to make some more progress. Pics coming soon.

Made a bit more progress on the wagon. Needed to get some color on the engine. Went old school with the gold as it's Testors from probably 50 years ago. Still works. Some of the other colors are believe it or not are Ammo Jet Engine Colors. Right now I'm waiting on some pulleys for the front of the engine to arrive from Iceman so I can finish up the nose job on this.

 

Chassis has been keeping me busy as well. Did some cleanup on the rails and gave them a shot of black.  Also sprayed body color on the pan to see how it looks. I like the contrast.

Trying to figure out the front end stance has been a lot of trial and error. But I think we are almost there. Just need to get some wheels for this baby.
