1968 Shelby GT500

I don't post on here much but I've been working on a 1968 Shelby GT500 kit that I thought I would share.  I've attached a pic of the body after I painted it, no clear on it yet but I think its turning out okay.  I left the front and rear bumpers on the coffee table and the dog decided to chew on them so they are pretty much demolished.  I thought that perhaps I would build a front and rear bumper that would give it a road race/ pro touring design, so it has started to move towards that route.  Its really my first time scratch building bumpers so I'm sure i'll be posting questions about that soon and if anyone can post some similar style bumpers they've made for some inspiration I'd appreciate it!   I will get some more pictures tomorrow!

Well I got the interior in, chassis on, and wheels on.  Took some grinding but overall I like the stance.  I wish I had more time, this would have been a great kit to really detail but I'm moving to NC this weekend so it was just a matter of trying to get it done before the move.  Still have to make some bumpers and put in the taillights, not sure if the bumpers will get done or not, if they do they will be rushed and look like BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH lol
