Another patina style. I really enjoy and have so much fun with this type of build. Just a good way to remain constructive and productive with my spare time at the work bench.

Stunning build Luke. That thing is out of this world. The patina looks so real and the detailing on the engine is amazing.

G’day Luke, love the patina. Looks like someone found a Plymouth Roadrunner in a barn and did everything you would do to build a tough street car but left the outside of the body as is. Top notch. 👍🏻
