Thanks, guys---well that explains a lot, then! I never would have known that!
Here's the firewall, Greg--some detail there, but not much? Can you see where to plug in that wire? Is part #48 the coil attachment?
By the way, I do plan on weathering the car a bit, but not going crazy with it. I remember that these cars got pretty dirty, but they got repaired pretty quickly, so you didn't see them in a state of disrepair too much. I used to go see them a lot when I was younger.
Thanks, Bob; the engine is pretty clean so far. I've still got some work to do to it, but I'm going to keep it relatively clean.
This kit is pretty rudimentary; a lot of clean-up required on all the numerous struts and braces of the body. Lotsa seam lines to clean up. The body is one piece, with the hood over the engine separate; two choices for the hood there, which is nice.
Right now I don't have a whole lot to show yet; just got the engine 3/4 finished. I'll post some photos when I get something that looks like a car. lol.
Bill, thanks for that photo--that'll be a snap to build! By the way, I think that this does have "tube headers"--like, a 4-tube exhaust pipe melding into one bigger tube on the outside of the car? It looks pretty cool. ![Smile [:)]](/emoticons/icon_smile.gif)
