Very, very cool Brian. Paint, concept, engine, bodywork. It's just about prefect in every way! Note I say just about. You goofy Aussies keep putting the steering wheel on the wrong sides of your cars. All kidding aside. A very nice job Brian. I'm impressed.

Thanks for the awesome feedback gentlemen. Happy to share my bent mind with you all

Scott... Ha! so someone noticed.... although getting the steering on the "correct" side wasn't a matter of national pride. The old six has its inlet ports on the left. After I put the blower, carbs & scoop on I figured the driver would need a periscope to see, so he got the side shuffle. Luckily the Corvette dash is almost symetrical.

The Tamiya yellow turned out well. Its a good solid colour & shows up the body lines well. I'd recommend it.

Thanks again for the encouragement

Looking at your car and the engine setup, I kind of figured that may be the real reason you put the driver on the right. But, with you being from Australia, and my warped sense of humor, I could not pass up an easy dig about driving from the right side of the car. Which is OK to do by the way. Even here in Minnesota. As long you also stay on the right side of the road. Since we drive on the right side of the road, that must mean you guys drive on the wrong side of road. Right? Or is that left? Now I'm all confused?
