Top job Tony! Been watchoing this one closely ever since you started. Ive seen one done once before and although the guy did a fair job he didnt chase the details the way you have. You nailed the proportions of this Aussie classic.

Just another reason why you guys should get over here for Super Model Car Sunday!

Cheers
Alan
