Ok folks. I believe that the 396 is done enough to where I'm going to put it in the chassis and get started on the exhaust system. I temporarily installed the center section of the fan on the front of the front just for picture taking purposes and will remove it so I can use it on the backside of the other fan I have for a future build. N E ways..............here she is:
And this one I throw in for all my friends at work. They always tell me that I have a giant clothespin hanging out in my garage.

Thanks Dennis ( you kidder you) , Ken, Joel and Steve.
I installed the engine / xmsn assy this morning and checked out the stance again with the spare body in place. I should be receiving my silver bearing solder in the next day or so and will get started on the exhaust system.
We'll be moving forward from here though:

Well folks here's a weeks worth of applying bare metal foil and painting details on the body. I should have sanded those door key bezels off and used the PE ones I've got but hey, I'll chalk it up to a learning experience. I'm very happy with the outcome of the paint on this one. My hand can be seen in the reflection on the front fender.

Wow! cant-believe-my-eyes-smiley-emoticon
So what's your method? Do you mask off the areas to be foiled? On the side running lights, is that paint on foil or foil on paint?
