I really like the looks of this one, very clean looking build up to now. The tubing trim along the bottom body line is a great addition to the look. :clap:

By the way, ordering the glue pen. Using that link you sent me.

Between you and Bob, seems like a nice new toy for the bench.

Dave, you've definitely got it down! The bodies look real (like 1:1 cars)................ :text-bravo:

That body looks like it has 5 or 6 years of racing use on it. Great job! :)
