Man, this is high quality work! Sweet detailing and painting of the brake lines coming and going from the master cylinder.

Amazing! The engine already looks done; the mind reels when thinking of what more you can add...

Nice! I have always seemed to have trouble with Testor's Model Master gloss spray cans, even when I heat them in hot water before use. I somehow always seem t have one spot that doesn't finish up smooth and glossy for some reason. You've successfully nailed this. Someday I hope to do as well.

Thanks Mark! I've come across one bad can out of three with this stuff. lol. I think I can paint this puppy with 2 cans.
My son and I are in Sugarland this weekend for a hockey tournament that he is playing in and wouldn't you know it that I brought along the travel work bench items.......I'll have that hood completed this weekend with the hole cut out for the carburetors and cleaned up.

That's my boy.
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
