Wow the paint on those bodies is really shining - looks like you're off to a good start. Any progress on the interiors and engines yet?

thanks, the interiors will be royal light grey, both with bucket seats,

engines i'm looking to do away with the 'mulit carb' setup and have a single carb setup, just have to find parts that will fit, as this is old school, i'm also going to do away with the wheels that came with it, and use something else, that is gonna make it stand out even more

By old school, I take it you mean they're the old monogram kits?. Paint looks great and your interior combo sounds good, will be watching
