Hey there ewaskew, How's the build going? we have not seen an update in awhile :D , I am looking forward to your updates soon :lol: .

Hey David

The build is moving right along I have everything primed in gray now.

The next step is to cover it with white primer to make the red look better.

I'll do that sometime this weekend & let it set for a few days to gas out.

When I get it painted I'll put some more photos up,once it's painted I'll

let it set for a week or two before putting it together.

However I am starting this one between final steps.

Heres the latest 90% is painted and the building has started.

When the body is finished the trim will be the same color as the eng. light gun metal.

The bottom shots of the eng show the scratch built oil pan,oil filter,oilfilter housing and cover plates better

ya.. dont understand why ya need to sharpee the places to sand, seems like a no brainer to me, but ive always wondered about placing the parts temporarilly, with little residue. fill me in bee??

The sharpie is just one of those things a lot of us do.

The tape is quicker and cleaner than temp glue spots to dry and clean.

No updates

That looks very good, it has been very nice to watch this topic. Nice work with it, paintjob is very good looking and that engine looks good too. Those modifications, that you did, are made very nicely, and I'm waiting to see this one finished, nice job with it. B)
