Sweet!! We rarely see cool stuff like this. Can't wait to see this thing done, with all the tricks you have up your sleeve for it.

This is going to look very cool once completed. My only suggestion is to black wash the grill.

Cool rod! I have the panel car version of this model, and would be interesting if I did something of a similar style.

Little late in the build, but ever thought about a chop top?
Anyway, looking great.

You're now the victim of blind readers too!

I feel your pain. I swear I can post pictures, explain everything very meticulously, and sure enough-someone will ask a question or make a comment on something that's right there for them to see.

Can't tell you how many times this happens.

"I painted it in blah blah blah and I got it from blah blah blah".

"What color is that and where can I get it?"

"I used blah blah blah rims".

"What rims did you use?".

"I got the rims at blah blah blah.com".

"Where can you get those rims?".



I thought sometimes people only look at the pictures, but in this case...

I ain't teaching these guys braille. They're on their own!
