Damn it Steve. Don't start! LOL

Yes, the bonnet is a seperate piece. The piece I cut free is the front bumper side vent. It was molded mesh. I cut those out earlier today.

Just don't steal my pics! *refers to Steve's incident* Best of luck to your project. I really should finish that Supra or use the engine in some other project. I put a lot into that motor......

Great looking start so far. I built one ages ago and is still one of my favorites.

Some more progress. I've painted the body Tamiya Silver Leaf and laid down the Clear coat. It's looking good....drying at the moment so no pics right now.


The interior. Added an interior center brace, some seatbelts, SAS Bride seat (matt black on front, semi-gloss on back), yada yada.....


Here's some of the misc. pieces. Made a new cat-back from a Fujimi alum. muffler and some styrene. I used Evergreen 214 (3.2mm) as it comes out to be right around a 3" pipe to scale. Blacked out the headlights and taillights. Painted the calipers and assembled the chassis.
