I accidentally deleted my post on this in Under Glass and I was still hoping to get some tips, criticisms, likes, dislikes suggestions.

The car isn't completely finished so I put it in the wrong place to begin with, I still need to install a CB antenna, door side mirror, fender top fuel cap, maybe try to BMF the windshield trim, etc.

I hate orange so I painted the car grey, I feel it's more in keeping with Lee's name.

I shaved all the emblems, door handles, marker lights, and sill moldings.

I built a full cage that actually fits the car, made exhaust pipes with cross over tube and muffs from aluminum tubing, and built a new rear valence and molded it into the body.

As far as the hood scoop, some people hate them some like 'em and I like 'em so it's got one.

I will post some pics of some other projects I am working on in this scale soon since I finallhy figured out how to post photos; a General Grant car in blue - sort of a Yankee Dukes car :), a Hazard County Sheriff "Pursuit" unit with a fuel injected twin turbo 440 and 727 tranny, a couple other Generals cars, etc.

I am not a purist, I build stuff my way and for my amusement.

I welcome any comments pro or con and any tips anyone may have out there.

I was looking all over the place in the under glass section for this, I guess I know what happened...lol, been there.

Well like I said before, I really like what you did here. Taken something that's been done over and over and changed it up to make it your own. I love the smooth look of no handles/drip rails/etc. with the combo of the color. Good job, looking forward to seeing you finish this up. Keep building for you, it's the only way to do it.
