Al, your model is superb. It just plain "looks" right.

My last day of vacation I tried to get a bunch done.

To much to list everything so I'll let the pics do the talking.

Quit talking to yourself and build one Chuck. I gotta warn ya though, you'll never go back to wee scale.

But if I quit talking to myself, I'll be all alone...

[old-hermit]

Sweated (literally) some little stuff today.

Got the throttle linkage, fuel line & fuel filter made up ...

... and the starter wired ...

To hot for more. I'll get back at it in the AM when it's cooler.

This thing is lookin' really really nice !!!

[arick]

Nice build, I like it. Just wondering though, you put so much thought into the interior.......are you going to add clutch/break/loud pedals?

Keep it coming Al, great builds.

[old-hermit]

Thanks for the compliments guys. I've been in a slump lately and this build is bringing me out of it.

are you going to add clutch/break/loud pedals?

I got the pedals done this AM Rick. I had to wait till the body was placed with the floor to get the right height.

Cameras sure do bring out all the boo boo's. Looks like I need to do some touching up on the dash and get some better glasses.

Hats off. This goes beyond craftsmanship to art.

[GrandpaMcGurk]

Excellent model Al, it really captures that old school hot rod image. As usual, your turn around time is in a league that many of us only wish we could keep up with. Another feather in your cap, well done!

[Smart-Resins]

Absolutly terrific!

[Junkman]

Absolutly terrific!

I second that. Although the style is not to my taste, this is modelling at it's finest!

Ya gotta have someplace to sit your favorite frosty beverage.

there are a few law enforcement types watching the board, so ya' might want to switch those cans right quick 'fer they catch ya' consuming that hydraulic hamburger.
