Yenko, let loose on Aussie back roads...

Well, she finally made it onto the road, though I had to be content with a squirt on some dusty back road....Had to avoid the heat, as there's no rego on her yet.(printer's on the fritz)

Can't beleive this took so long, and I thank you all for your patience.
It has been an epic, I tried a couple of new ideas, some of which, probably wont be attemted again, like full brake lines....Man, are they fun to put on....NOT.....Would you beleive I actually had them all installed, rear axle assembly in,.....then I saw the exhaust system still laying on the bench........DOH !!!!!!!

Anyway, it all fell together, eventually.
Here's some pics for you

Still need to attatch some p/e scripts, finish the air cleaner and a couple of small odds'n'ends, but she's pretty much done...

Hey GvEman,
Mate, I got the hose from a hobby supplier many years ago, can't remember who though, sorry.It had the fine printing on it.

Thanks very much Mate.Very kind words.
Now that I've calmed down from the stress of the build, I can get into some other projects...and I'll probably do brake detail again........

Thanks to everyone, here at AF, this is where I gain my a lot of knowledge which makes me do the hard work.

cheers

WHOA! That color is beauuuutiful! Looks sooooo nice, wow! Makes me want to build a domestic! These cars deserve alot of respect, I love it;)

Great job. Simple, effective, clean, just as modeling should be.

Phenominal attention to detail! You've given me alot of idea's, thank you.

I've seen that thing in the backstreets of Australia ;-)

LOL

Great work mate, looks really good.

Cheers

Stump, that is inspiring!!! I love it!!! It could easily be mistaken for the real thing.
Absolutely beautiful!

I like!!!!!!!

I wonder if the e-brake assembly is harder on the 1:1 or the 1:25...Guess I'll have to do it on my next '69 Camaro...or maybe the one after that, since my next one won't have the correct underbelly, more on that later. Great job with the detail, someday I'll do another muscle car and maybe it'll be good enough to put on the bottom shelf of the display case this one is on!
