Started this at the first of Jan and have been working on it off and on since.
Kit box art
got the frame started
got the engine started and did some painting
got the body panels ready and painted them with a mix of light blue and silver pearl to get a close match on the 1:1
Going to do the decals and start putting the chassis together next so till next update thanks for looking.

Thank You guys for the nice comments. Here is a ref. picture of the engine I am using This is what the eng. looks like now They don't have an oil system for the eng. in the kit so I got one from a funny car parts kit and installed it and did the mod for the fuel pump as on the 1;1 have to do the fuel lines yet. Have been working on the wheels and tires, firmed up the rear slicks with 2 1/2 cotton balls Yep, just stuff the cotton inside and roll the tires on the wheels ( these are not the wheels they ran on the car but I have a set coming in Well that all for right now but I've been doing the decals so will up date when they are done and clear coated. Thanks for looking.
