Looks nice, John! but is it just my eyes or does that front end "T" with the brake lines look like you wouldn't be available to turn the front wheels left or right? if it was a real car.. or am I just seeing things? I'm alittle tired right now.

A question just popped in my feeble brain.

Does the pics you take help with the detail

or drive you into the "got to fix that" black hole.

Thanks John..

always awe inspired ..

I am enjoying watching this one come together. I have seen quite a few of your completed builds at shows and being new to this forum it is a first watching one of your masterpieces being built. Thank you for sharing and inspiring those of us without your incredible skills.

James.......yes, pictures help 100% with scale and detail........it shows me mistakes that I make.......my eyes aren`t as good as they use to be.......the pictures also help with out of scale parts........sometimes I can fix mistakes .......sometimes its to late.......but,I live with it........thank you for your question.
