My birthday purchase/Saleen finished pics/Z's day out! *MANY PICTURES*

Well, seeing as my birthday was April 16, I had a few bucks to spend. Not all of it was on modeling, though.
Things purchased:
SVT Lightning to pull my Saleen
Panel line marker
Meguar's Cleaner Wax (look at the tutorial for painting on TinyImports.com)
Squadron White putty
0.20 Evergreen sheet styrene
Ribbon (it was $.44, it could be used as seatbelts)
Testors Steel to substitute XF-56
Testors trailer (made of metal, nothing screws on right, but it'll do.)
Can of "Painter's Touch" semigloss black



And, as seen on the trailer, the Saleen Dragster!





And finally, my 350Z's day out in the sun!






Enjoy!

Sweet job on the Z and the Stang. I wouldn't change the rear wheels, but I would shorten the rear axel and tub it. (so the tires are inside the fenders) Thats a tight S2k too, Have fun building it!

Just make a bigger lip that goes to the end of the rear tires and it will look good.
