Ken,
The suspension area detailing is really starting to pay off in huge dividends.

Ken,
I'm just super impressed as to your detailing on the side fender wells of the engine compartment, as well as the front end compartment with all those tanks, tubes, and braces. But what really caught my eye is the level of realism that your realistic weathering has created.

Almost done now. Just waiting for some jewellery findings to finish it off.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

It looks fantastic Ken. Super impressed with dio and execution of the idea. Having everything open just adds to "garage" concept. One of your best builds.
cheers

Spectacular build Ken. Kudos, for making a dio, we don't see that often enough.
