Sorry for not posting in awhile. The summers get busy. Building this kit for an old freind, who had one back in the day. It's about 90% the way he had it and 10% the way he would have liked. Of course, had to put in my 2 cents also. The kit comes with a 409, but Larry had a 283 with 3 duecs, solid lifters and a cam. Kit also has bench seats and he wanted buckets and a Hurst floor shifter. So she's almost there. Put the Bare Metal Foil on and shot some clear. Next comes the cals and trim. Thanks for lookin:)

Thanks Brizio. Had a chance actually work on this car 1:1 back in the day, so it really helped. You can't tell from the photos, but went back, tore apart the front and rear wheels and put on a set of Disk brakes and lettered the tires in gold.

I can see the lettering Bruce. It adds that extra touch. Man...that profile shot of the cars sure makes it look like a 1/1. Great job on this puppy Bruce.
