The interior really looks great! I swear I can smell the leather and vinyl from here!

Great paintwork sir...but my favorite part of this is the wiring on and in the engine compartment. Most guys don't do this I notice, and no matter how good a paintjob is done it just don't look complete without what you've done here. +++

Well here is the COMPLETED build! I have to say that this is the best fitting Revell kit that I have ever built. Really on par with Japanese kits. All of the stressful construction steps were alleviated. (Glass, fit of body to chassis, wheel ride height, tires...). I just can't say enough about this. A few small criticisms could be the transparency and fit of some of the decals and some wrong callouts for colors or placement of decals, and maybe the lack of certain attachment points for some parts. I added an antennae and also detailed the molded in ram air assembly on the underside of the hood. Some have complained about this, but with some careful painting can be made to look quite good. As a final note, I solved the problem of the pinstripe decal vs the blacked out hood by hand painting Vallejo satin varnish to blend in the sheen of the black paint. Here is a teaser picture, I will post a new thread in the "completed" section later.

Everything you have put into this car has certainly enhanced the good things that you've identified about this kit. Just a beautiful turn out in every single aspect and you can tell that alot of tender love and care was put into it. Looking forward to seeing the additional photos.

Gil, the work you have done on your Boss is absolutely stellar. Everything you touched on this turned out amazing. That interior is really something to be proud of. It is as about dead nuts real as you can get. Muy fantastico brother!
