Thanks guys. I actually built this car from a stock car that was given to me by a friend. But it was missing soo many parts, I either had to scratch build some things, or source them from the parts box such as seats, rear suspension/axle/driveshaft, ladder bars, gas tank, engine and wheels/tires. Some things didnt fit right, like the front and side windows, engine, etc and had to be modified to fit. Cut the rear wheelwells to fit the tires too. Also some parts are resin I purchased just for it, like the M/T valvecovers, gasser headers, and an intake setup that I actually didnt use. I was sort of in a hurry, so there are some imperfections in it, but, its just plastic.

License plate was custom printed by myself, like 10 years ago lol

I used to try to build for perfection, but the older I got, I just wanted to have fun building again, and this was one of those builds. I've only got like 100 or so more kits to build... :lol:
