Wow!
I'm almost embarrassed to make this post with all the talent on this forum! I'll still do it, I'm thinking it's going to be a huge learning experience!!

This is my 1st car since i was a kid, so i'm making it my "practice car", i'm used to armored so i'll have to read on how to do the nice glassy finish.

I'm thinking about making her black with black interior, with the red trims, nothing fancy just what comes in the box for this one!

Hey Jeff, it's no big thing, truth be known we have all felt that way before, if it makes you feel better I have not posted anything on here yet myself, getting ready to post a couple builds, but I pretty much feel the same way, but we learn from constructive criticism , but as long as your happy with it that's all that matters!!! ;)

Stop worrying about what we think. This is suppost to be fun (for you) enjoy the build, as we will too. I suck, but I enjoy building and sharing with the forum. What is the worst that they can say. In my experience, they have only helped by great suggestions. HAVE FUN!!!!!!
