Cool, another KL custom maybe?? I was looking around an hour or so ago because I couldn't remember ever seeing the 2007 Panoz that I though you were doing for her a year or so ago!?

Interesting Car?. Now they are racing a coupe version. Even though the car was built by AAR, I have to say that if that is the future of racing, I will stay in the past.

Ok I have a resin question b/c this car is resin. Will paint remover melt this resin? I have all the photo etch parts, light lenses etc removed now I need to strip. I could primer over existing flat color which I may do.

I would NOT use any paint remover, Ralph. Resin is Polyurethane. You can usually use lacquer thinner, with no worries. As always, test first. Take Care Craig

The problem is getting the images of all the sponsors. I'm working on that now, hopefully I can get them.

Andy Blackmore spotter's guides should go a long way.

I have been very happy with the Spark models I have added to my collection. Great detail and they make a lot of really cool cars. That is a pretty expensive donor car. Best of luck with it.

Yes it is but I do crazy stuff. Really impressed with the Sparks, first one I ever bought. If I get the chrome right I'll be happy as a gopher in soft dirt.

Looks good, Ralph. What paint are you using for the chrome? *edit* Black base is nice, can't wait to see the Alcad!
Nice to hear good things about Spark 1/18s, I have one of their GT40 MKI's on the way to me now.

I wish you luck with the Alcad - it has a history of giving trouble for people.
