Very nice build Mike. Decals look great. BTW maybe my kids took your mirrors. They're really good at making model parts disappear.

That thing is just simply gorgeous! Is that the Scale Motor Sport kit? Also, I don't understand what you mean when you say the decals were not pre-cut for this car . Can you elaborate? Thanks, and once again, that Bad Boy is gorgeous.

I love this car! I have to get the decals off of Scale Motorsports at the NNL East next month and do my own.
Nice Job!

Thanks, and once again, that Bad Boy is gorgeous. Nacho - The are the Scale Motor Sports decals and are very nice. As for pre-cut, I'm comparing them to Tamiya kit decals for instance. The Jake decal on the hood/ferrings is one giant decal that I had to splice. Rather than one decal being made for the hood, two others for over the ferrings, and two more for over the window area. Same with the air duct decals on the side that splits the black/yellow. It was one decal I had to cut and conform rather than there being two separate decals. Hope this helps.

Thanks Mike. That would have made my heart skip a beat or two. It is info. like that that makes a person appreciate how much work goes into a model. I would have not known that unless you told me. A compliment to your building skills!

Very nice job Mike. I did get a set of decals off Matthew at Scale Motorsports during the NNL East so I better get started on mine soon. I hope I can build it to look as good as yours. ;D
Karma sent your way on such a fine build. So whats next on your plate?

Great looking build Mike! I got to see the hauler for what I believe to be this car on I-75 last week on our way to Florida, and this build was the first thing I thought of when I saw it. Would have taken pics, but we were doing around 80 at the time, so it was kinda hard to snap some pics!
