Thank you, John! I try to build as if it were going to be street worthy... the detail on the body parts and the running gear is a very important aspect of the overall presentation. As said long ago the whole is the sum of all the parts. If you build every part as if it were a model in itself then the finished build will be a combination of a lot of smaller models. That's the way God put us together and that's how He wants us to put our lives together while we are here doing His work.
Have a very Blessed rest of you life here and we'll meet in Model Heaven, soon! KK

Man Wes, so far ALL your builds have been KILLER! I also try to build like they're REAL cars. And I try to make them as "driveable" as possible. Hey,as far as seein each other again, until OUR FATHER calls us home, why worry about it? We never cared when we were kids out playin, we just came home when we were called, so it'll be when we finally DO get to go home. We NEVER argued with Dad when it was time to go, caz we KNEW he was looking out for us, and He'd get us safely home. As long as we listen to our FATHER, an do as we're told, I don't have ANY fear that we WILL all be together when the time comes. Why worry about tomorrow? As long as we've done our BEST today, HE'LL take care of all our tomorrows. Just my take on things. God Bless Us ALL, My Brothers.

Sig,
There are so many different kits incorporated in this build... the body is a combination of the Revell '29 (the Red body parts); the AMT Ala Kart (the Tan body parts) and the Blue hood is from the AMT '27 Ford. The 4 Banger is from the AMT Mustang IMSA Race Car and the Headers came from the Revell Sprint Car and reconfigured to fit the 4'd from the SB Chevy it came from... and so many more parts and pieces from several other kits! KK

Hope that helped... There are so many other parts that were sourced from different kits. Just let me know if you would like me to go into any more detail, as I'd be more than glad to do so for you. KK
