Added the red pinstripe last night. It is red pinstriping tape like for a real car.
Maybe one more clear layer today :think:

Great looking build. All you need is a Tom Selleck looky-likey posing next to it, and I think that would set it off fantastically.
Finish line doesn't look far away now.

A little more forward
Wheels are on now and the hubs done. I also did a smoke spray in the windshield to tint it darker, just drying.
I want another clear spray on the body before she goes on permanently

Hop in, let’s go for a spin :D

I made some aluminum chrome tips for the exhaust and have polished them up
