Now the paint, its far from perfect but I am pretty happy with it. Not the easiest job to get symmetrical, but huge thanks go to 1320 Wayne for sending me a scan of the old kit decals, they hadnt scanned the best but gave me a pretty good guide for the paint.

Thanks guys, well I've gone about as far as I can with this one till I can get some 70's contingencies and some white decal paper (for the one I've never seen done). Had to change the windscreen tin,and have added all the chute cables etc including the release cable off the roll cage.

It's looking really good so far. Like that paintjob very much, and that Black Magic text turned out pretty good! Wheels and tires fit together very nicely, and engine detailing is truly amazing. Keep it coming, this is very interesting build.

couple of outside shots, some of the decals are proving to be rather elusive and I cant even find some of them on the web, however it looks pretty good sitting on the shelf without them so I'm calling it done for now

Brett.... Looking good man. You did a killer job on it and it turned out very nice. Love the shot with the two funny cars. That Schumacher car looks great too!!

Yeah-that came out really fast. H-Bodies are great, and they were popular on Drag Racing events. Nice build overall, very clean and realistic. That Schumacher FC looks very good too, as Chris said above.
