Reshaped the fuel tanks, wired and plumbed the engine (dual ignition, fuel injected) and brakes, made wire wheels, steering wheel, decals, etc... - Mark

That's one of the best I've seen on this board. I'll be courious to see the response on this. You said "made the wire wheels." Care to elaborate on that? They look great! Also the inboard drums. I also really like the rubber. Looks like its ready for the 1948 Indy 500. Great idea! Excellent craftsmanship.

Thanks, they're just photo-etched spokes. The wheels and tires are actually leftovers for two different 1/43rd projects.
The car is 1/64th scale... - Mark
