Luis Ayala Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 I started this one about a week ago for a local show that will be held next sunday at a nearby shopping mall. I decided to paint it on Tamiya "Pure White" white to give it a "sleeper" look . Interiors will be flat black and I added 19" CL on front and 23" on the rear. I will also add some wiring to the engine and an MCG tachometer kit. Hope you like it and thanks for looking. Here is a pic of the body ready to paint Here are some pics of the body already painted, polished & foiled Here are some pics of the engine and chasis.
MrObsessive Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Now that's comin' along beautifully Luis! You just don't see many of those built anymore! You started that a week ago...............It takes me that long just to figure out the paint color!
Luis Ayala Posted June 20, 2007 Author Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks Bill!!!!! I am glad you like it... I am using Tamiya lacquers to speed up some projects so I can bring new builds to our CSAE on November as well as a couple of more detailed projects I am working on at the same time. :wink:

I will post more pics tonight as I almost finished the wiring on the engine and the interiors. Hi DodgeMoparManiac, the wheels are Pegasus 19' & 23 CL's. :wink:
DodgeMoparManiac Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Thanks Luis! I've called the LHS and have them on order!!!
Luis Ayala Posted June 21, 2007 Author Posted June 21, 2007 Here are a couple of progress pics. The engine is done and in place. The interiors are finished exept for some decals on the dashboard that I will lay down tonight. Hopefully tommorrow I will have the windshields in place and install the bumpers, door handles etc. and that will be it. Hope you like it and again thanks for looking. Here is a pic of the engine in place wich still needs some work on the wiring and a couple of extra details. The chasis is almost done, exept for a conector pipe on the exahaust that hopefully will be installed tonight.
Luis Ayala Posted June 22, 2007 Author Posted June 22, 2007 Again, thank you all for your comments, here are a couple of pics of the last mile. I only need to install the door handles and a couple of extra details and It will be done. Hope you like it and thanks for looking.
