tubbs Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 looking good James. headers came out great. what did you use for the collectors?
James2 Posted October 12, 2015 Author Posted October 12, 2015 Thanks Mitch, Tim and Al, I used styrene tubing. First I tapered the pipes down and the removed a little material on the inside of the tubing with a knife.Put the tube on the header, apply some liquid cement and push. The cement softens the tube and makes it conform to the header!
James2 Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Small update on the interior. Flat black, BMF and some slight weathering. I still have more belts and some detail to add, but I like it so far. Edited October 22, 2015 by James2 Info

James2 Posted October 26, 2015 Author Posted October 26, 2015 Oh MAN! I'm loving this!! SO sweet looking! (pssst...don't forget to paint your reflectors on your door panels!)I was waiting because they came on the decal sheet but then I lost one. So I guess paint will do!

Nytrozilla Posted October 31, 2015 Posted October 31, 2015 I can already see the chrome around the strip. Excellent execution James.
