Finally have my all time favorite drag car in the case. 

Added spark plug wiring and fuel injection lines from the tank to the pump.

All Tamiya Paints except duplicolor acrylic clear lacquer. 

Slixx for the decals 

Rear wheels and tires from the Revell 1967 GTX

Swapped the 4spd engine halves with the Dodge version of the kit to make this one a 4spd 

A satin clear on the kits chrome ft bumper to replicate polished aluminum

Blue tinted acetate file folder sheet used for the side glass

I made my own window frames using some plastistruc strips

 

This is the 1st one of these kits I've left the front spindles so the wheels were posable, And I like it much better 

 

 Im really happy with how this one turned out

 

* On a side note The tires / Keystone rims from the Revell 1967 GTX  are a near perfect fit for this kit like they were made for it

Ooohhhh......very very nice finish on this one Bill. The engine detailing/ plug wires/ fuel lines are A+ as well as the paint/ decaling/ foil work and general construction also all A+. I also really like the paint work you did on the front mags to make them look like more realistic slightly oxidized mag wheels and not the shiny toy-like polished chrome wheels that come with the kit. 

Looking forward to seeing your build of the S&M Tiger II AWB sedan as well as the Harrop Dodge posted here in the near future. You do beautiful work!
