I'm with you Bruce...It's always GREAT to see Brizzs' fab work. Those seats look really close to the 'ol Bomber seats they use in street rods and older Circle Track cars. Infact....I've got a few of them molded ( for future builds).

After searching for 4 wheels for the car, I put them on the side of the table, and start to work on the dashboard. I did not notice that one fell on the floor... Guess who find it before me... My dog...

Dang.... :-/I wonder if he liked the TASTE of the plastic. Do you have any more of the wheels? If not...what kit are they out of? I might have them and I can send them to you. [/color]

Thank you for the offer Gary, but I found another matching wheel in my parts box. I'm back in business now...

Finally some paint... I like when I can start to paint, things take shape, and give the idea that something is moving forward. Axles... Two wheels and tires done, I still need to finish two tires. Needs resize them and re-widht. I mean make them smaller in diameter and narrow. I don't remember where those tires came from, I mean for sure not from another planet , but the tread looks pretty cool for this car, and they are rubber. Here the rear tires on the axle.
