Finished this one up last night. I'm really getting into these brass era cars. This is a really nice kit that goes together well. I used pinstriping tape for the fenders as the decals were too brittle. Searched Google for images and found quite a few with the apple green engine, so that's what I went with. Comments welcome, thanks for looking!

Very nice, I built the Airfix version some time ago, I have the MPC version in the stash, I love these old timers, and you did a good job of building this one ....

Very nice! I have one of these and a 1909 Thomas Flyer that I really need to build... I'm with you, I love the early 20th Century 'Brass Era' autos.

Very nice build! I have the same kit on-deck (the MPC "Bearcats" edition) just lacking the wheels and tires. I want to do it very similar to yours and was wondering the best way to attempt the pinstripes on the hood and fenders,got a pretty good idea how to proceed now!.....................................................Mark

Very nice. What kit is this? People are guessing MPC. Is it?

Yes it's the MPC kit. The chrome tree had some issues, I repainted the inside of the headlights but missed the inside of the driving (?) light on the dash. The only thing I'm not happy about is the fit of the firewall to the back of the hood, otherwise I'm pleased. Chris, I'm flattered, copy any pics you wish! Thanks everyone for the kind comments.
