Lou....my friend.... your an excellent builder yourself!! ;)


Thanks guys!!

I spent the last few days making side upper and lower panels along with sail panels from sheet stock. I also prepped the front nose and hood kit pieces. These are not exactly like what Josh ran on his cars. His front hood was made to fit inside the bars, not on top of them. Since that hood will be displayed off most of the time I did not think it mattered.
I got all the parts primed, basecoated, and added Scale motorsports Twill dark weave decals and barb wire from a slixx supplement sheet. I will bury it in clear once I get the rest of the decals made. The CF is on both sides of the panels.
