cobraman Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Beautiful, just plain beautiful. How you can get so much done in a short time is amazing. Not only get it done but get it done so well. Amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Goschke Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Very impressive! Looking forward to the finish. I'm assuming the angle of the engine, with the upward tilt at the front, is because we're looking at a mockup and it'll fit straighter at final assembly. Am I correct?

Austin T Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Are you planing on doing the pin striping on the back? If you could find someone to print a decal of it that would be amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Teresi Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 You are unreal, John. It's probably been asked and answered already, but what type of clear do you use? Hi Jim.......the clear I use is .........RM 5800 clear, RM Hardener,Rm Reducer........I believe any good quality clear will give great results.......... but,I have to be honest with you........the prep work and sanding is the most important........thanks.
