Man.............................you're a better man than me in regards to figuring out that interior. It can be done and all but you've got your work cut out for you................no pun intended.

Oh, I agree. From the start I wondered if I was making a huge mistake, but ultimately I wanted to go for it. It would be interesting to remotor the car, but I felt that was going to add more time on to the project and I think personally, Joe, I really think if I get 60% of the feel of a cockpit without crowding the motor, I have done it.

That's a really good looking interior in that 1:1 example too. Looking forward to seeing what you do with this........

I was looking at the original pic where the driver was half molded into a flat plane covering the driver's compartment. I thought to myself, "Hey, they sunk him in Carbonite! That's one way to keep him in the car!"
You got this Bruce! Looking forward to seeing some more progress here.

Duke!!! That’s a perfect description. I’m trying to create as much depth as possible or I am gonna get me slot car jig and brass rod and make the car a rear engine drive like it should be—although I forget nah I didn’t—I remember the drive is called a “sidewinder.”
