Hey All. I had this kit in my stash and thought it was a good candidate for this month's theme. This is my first non-drag racer. The research has already been fun!

Thanks for the encouragement guys. I've been doing a lot of small parts painting and sanding, etc. So although I don't have a lot to show I've been busy. I finished the engine and chassis. I cut some tall stacks down and replaced the kit stacks on the Webers because they looked so undersized. I also added a fuel pump which sits in between the carbs, and then plumbed them. Other than that, nothing spectacular. The kit is a typical Tamiya kit, well engineered.

Hey guys, sorry about the few updates but life has been crazy. I finished the interior. I've also done some of the chrome trim on the body but its not done so I'm not posting it. Very little left to do but critical items. Thanks for viewing.
