Really outstanding work ! This is an exceptionally cool project, especially with this COE front end.

Far too modest

I seemed to have dramatically aged over night, as I keep on repeating myself!

Mike, I'll agree when once I'm finished I'm able to achieve "the right look." There's a lot...

...that must look spot on or VERY close. I'm not there yet. Also, the wheels I'm using will be close but NOT a perfect match. There is NO perfect match in any scale except 1/64.

AHUG!

Chris, send them along but don't be surprised if your Ford cabover comes out looking like a Dodge or Chevy.

Dennis thanks. Oh, it won't be perfect; I know there will be compromises.
