Calling complete, for now. Drag City Castings body, chassis is stock minus the hood hinges. Tamiya clear coat, clear red over pink metallic.

I like that. Neat how you came up with the color. I am not too knowledgeable about this kit, but why did you use an aftermarket body on your build?

Oh yeah...my all time favorite.  Great looking build James.

Here is the build thread, basically I wanted a flip nose and Ed at Drag City Castings makes some of the best resin available.

You have just convinced me I NEED a replica of his Willys as well

Absolutely beautiful!!!!  Love the old Gassers, and BIG JOHN's was most certainly one of the most famous.  👍👍
