    Don't do it Jim, that crazy transplant is messing with yer mind!!.......He's just saying all that nice stuff coz he doesn't want to suffer alone. Every once in a while (blue moon) you get a resin kit that goes together somewhat ok.....then on the next one you see the oop:hit the fan and the sprue with the next to microscopic part on it is the size of a tree trunk and it takes 2 days to get the thing free of its captor, only to break it just seconds before it comes loose! All good........:tongue-out3:if you decide to try one, my advice is not to get too heavily invested in it .....just in case you end up binning it.

                      Beautiful car Pete. A real labour of love.
                      Definitely a bargain kit.

                        You've done a fine job on it. 68 or 69 Charger in the background brings back memories.
