Excellent improvisation there Bruce! Both on the wheel and the windscreen.

PAINT?

J.K. I am looking forward to paint, too.

THINGS TO DO

Paul Fisher of Fisher Models has resin pieces for his version of the RSK—
parts include steering wheel, shifter, seat, exhaust pipe.

Thank you for stopping by, Carlos!
Feels nice and quiet here most of the time.
So nice to have some action.

Sanding raised ridge lines—molding pattern edges—on the car body takes the most time; I have to mask off delicate details to prevent the sanding from obliterating them; I also have grooves to contend with as well—grooves representing the fitted door panels for example; the seam line runs straight through the grooves which is not groovy at all.

Oh I am certainly watching this one Bruce. I have nothing to share in this area aside from encouragement. Although the car reminds me of the little roadsters that my dad used to have when I was a little boy.
