My very favourite builds are cars that people used to actually own. There is a passion to get things just right that exceeds even the greatest rivet counter out there. This build is no exception to that passion.

Wow....Now that's a custom paint job Thanks, I am not as steady of hand as I used to be, if I were, I would have tried to free hand airbrush the silver pinstripes and hidden candy features. It will have to do. At least it will be a fairly good representation.

This is looking fantastic! Looking more and more like an exact replica of your car Thank you, it is going to look pretty close. It is a physical impossibility to get it where I would like it to be. Between the pain meds and unsteady hand, I have grown to accept it. I used to be very well versed with paint guns and air brushes.

This build is no exception to that passion. Thank you. I totally agree. We can be extremely picky when we know what the actual product was.

Thank you very much. Much appreciated. That’s the thing when we try to duplicate our own stuff, we get really fussy to the point of climbing walls. I do agree that the stripes came out really well. They certainly took a lot of work. After the clear comes the fun part of making my own headers, fuel pumps and lines, cables

Looks like you pulled off the mother of all schemes with this one Rich! Dude that looks GREAT man. Don't worry about all the details bud.....if you can pull off a scheme like that....you've got the details in the bag.
