Yeeeeah Baby !! This is coming together nicely !! I really Dig that Chop, th little X-tra that you put in the rear bottom panel looks Cool !! That Louvered trunk !! Rox !
Thanks very much indeed Erik, appreciate the great comments buddy, just trying to get a bit more done as we speak/type, keep getting sidetracked with house jobs tho..LOL ;D
Quaralane, thank you too buddy, slow but steady progress.................but hey!!, there`s no rush.......................yet!!!...LOL :
Spent today priming and painting the engine ready for wiring, also sprayed most of the front end linkage etc ready for fitting (not done it yet on these pics)..............took me most of the afternoon to mask up the engine after base coating with the silver and then mask up to add the gold and blue which are the same colours as the body and stuff............
LOL..............nah just getting the incentive to get the booth out and get spraying, just needed to give meself a kick up the butt, i thnik digging the Repsol Honda out has fired me back up again............good job i didn`t decide to re-visit the P51
Thanks once again for all the terrific comments guys...................makes it all worthwhile ;D
Just a couple of quick pics............
Just been adding the wiring, drilling out the plug holes and attaching the rubber boots, the wire left upright will be for the coil..............can`t do nothing with that one untill the body colour is done on the firewall!!
Thanks very much `T` and Grendals, the next few bits will be the front linkage and stuff so nothing too exciting...................more fiddley than fun ;D, also need to re-work the steering linkage somewhat as moving the front end forward comes at a price...............it don`t fit..LOL, nothing a bit of scratcherising won`t cure!!! :
Every alteration on these builds has a knock on effect that needs to be rectified at some point........it`s a blast tho.......................you`ll love it `T` ;D
