Very nice ! And aside from the obvious exellent work done, I still revel in the fact it's not yet another SBC stuck under the hood.

Thank you guys!  I have built the '29 Model A Roadster with a SBC, so the Nailhead Buick is a welcomed change of pace!

Thank you John and Jim!  This is what I had copied from the box art and I must say that the '30 Model A came out beautifully.

Wonderful job on that Ford Mike!  Love the colors and especially those wide whitewall tires.  After seeing yours I regret not getting this kit when I had the chance.

I can hear the rumble and smell the stinky exhaust!

Nothing stinky about unburnt fuel belching out two feet from the cylinder it was blown up in Cool.  

Ever see nitro cars run?  I was at a race track in Idaho way back standing near the burnout box.  You could feel these cars in your gut and not so much smell as there was the burning in your eyes!  All of it spells fun.

Thanks,

John

 Looks awesome! And I have to sing that praise one more time : It's Not Another SBC powered ride. Not that I dislike them but just too many of them, something different counts too.

Beautiful finish, Mr Mike!  That color is really great!

Thank you guys!  SBC are becoming a dime-a-dozen in the modeling world.  Time for something different!
