the build is progressing slowly now. but the posting of pics is stalled. it seems i cannot upload to the web, my isp seems to prohibit that. not sure why so i will be calling them to find out why.

thanks again for the kind words.

ok this is the latest group of shots. i am still waiting for word on the dash plate so i am not sure when i will actually finish this kit.

these shots are an aweful lot like the last but i wanted to show how faded the body actually looks. notice the darker green piece. that is close to the mold color. and it is the only piece that did not get a silver undercoat. i am going to try something different with that one.
