Outstanding build Greg. Had wondered how this was going as you had been silent for quite a while.

Goodness! Awesome detail man. I guess it shouldn't surprise me on a 1/12 scale, but that motor is delicious with all the little bits! Funny exhaust sticker

Those details are great! Sometimes close ups can ruin an impression because they reveal quite some flaws, but this is awesome!

Stunning. Would love to see this in real life as it seems you could only appreciate the details in person. Great build.
