May consider this a test, since photobucket changed up there site, having to figure out how to post pics. The orange paint is Testors Hemi orange, except for gas tank, velocity stacks, seat bracing, this is out of the box. Dont build many of those. Hope you like. Drew

One of my faves and you do it justice. It was a hard kit to find back when, and I never got to build one. Thanx for making one and posting fotos!

Tough kit, but you've built a beauty, detailing on that engine is super! Nice build.

Thanks guys, This one is kind of a pain in the ___. So many small chrome parts that by the time you clean them up, well you know. Had a real hard time fitting the headers, had to cut the flanges just to get them to sit against the heads! Quick story-- i was fortunate to be at the Grand National Roadster Show a few years back, and as I was walking around looking at so many cool cars walked right up on this thing. She is absolutely one of the greatest looking show cars under the lights. Drew

Super job from what I hear is a tough kit. I built one back in the day but it didn't come close to this. Again, great job!
