I think you might be right Jason, but I haven't seen one in quite some time, so I thought I would just use the big one for now. It turned out like crap anyway
I would love to take that Heuer sticker off of ya, PLEEEEEEASE and thank you. I'll PM you

Getting a little closer, broke out the fine tip Sharpie and found some rear knock off which I painted. Now when I put on the body around the shock tower with the unattached shocks I cant touch anywhere where there is a Sharpie marking or else it rubs off

Not sure if you noticed in the Aug issue of RCCA, but there is a Fram oil filter mounted on the right rear area of the gear case cover.
BTW, Hope your enjoying your trip.

Yeah, I've been thinking about how to construct that out of styrene. The Fram sticker came in the sticker sheet I have so once I figure it out I can incorporate it right away.

I just realized that I didn't include the 2 youtube videos that have this car in it. I wished I remembered it before the build, but I might as well include it. It should give me an idea of how to build the oil filter

I've got a prototype interior started and I'm sporting a Heuer sticker from Al (a01butal). Not too much of an update, but still moving forward

Even though you sent me money for the tires
If there were two builds I was happy to donate parts to, this would be one! (As would Scr8p's Hustings car no one notices be the other). Looking great!!!

I'm quite sure I wouldn't be able to pull that one off, besides she's 15 years too young to be the original bikini girl and 15 years too old to be the next one
I wanted to thank Jeff (SFC K) for donating the steering wheel. It looks like a good fit and with paint it's going to look awesome.
