Man that looks real sharp, great start James 

 I real love the detail work, right down to the brass soft plugs in the block. What tires and rims will be added on...I hope a set of fattys in the rear, something like a set of 33's 

 After seeing yours makes me wanna finish up the many I have started and boxed. Other than the yellow paint will you be doing any graphics...
I started one like 3 years ago along with many others, I was going for the low-boy with no top. I also did the big Revell 32 in 1/16th. That one I cut open the door and hinged it suicide style. For the engine, drivetrain and wheels, I swiped them from Revell's 1/16th Funny Car kit. 
Hey have you even done the AMT "Vicky'' car, that is a great little kit. I have it but never got to it. I have dry fitted it and everything looks nice, very little flash also.
Anyhow great looking start and waiting to see more.
