I feel like Scotti [Aussimodeler] I don't know why I am bothering with these contests but it is an excuse to build something. i wasn't going to enter anything else until I finish the Caterham because it is so much work but I bought this kit just for this contest so I am going to enter it. I don't know how I am going to do it yet except I won't use the stock engine.  |

Dennis,
You could go LS-3 or LS-1 motors, that would be really
cool for that car! Maybe!?!
Looking forward to more though,
David S.

Great looking box art Dennis! It does look good as a lowrider but I was wondering if theres a stock option in the kit?

Nice!! This one builds great right out of the box from what I hear. A level 3 kit I think so lots of pieces.

I am going to build this one pretty much out of the box except for the engine. There are a lot of pieces. I know you are familiar with them as you have a gazillion of them. Be careful on the road in your travels. |

I like that engine set up Dennis...................ALOT!! Can't wait to see the additional pictures of the paint job but from what I can see of it in the photo you've provided looks good to me and that color is just out of sight!
What did you use for the fuel lines BTW?

I used fly tying tubing they use in fly fishing. I use it for a lot of things. It's the same thing John used in his "'32 Ford" build only he used clear tubing and I used Dark Golden Stone with 1.5mm gold crimp beads for connectors. |
