Thank you, I forgot a couple of things from the above post. Thanks to Russ Bundy for some technical info he provided to me on the car and thanks also to Bill Jorgensen for replacing the windscreen that I ruined. H.W.

That's the best example of that car I've ever seen!! Was it hard to build? How much scratch building and parts pirating was involved? It really is gorgeous.

Well, it wasn't too hard.I used the suspension parts and the structural part(I don't know the technical name for it) that they mount to from the AMT Olsonite Eagle. I didn't use the resin one from B.J. It required drilling a few mounting holes for these parts prior to painting, but this too wasn't hard, just required a little fiddling and measuring. I messed up the decals and had to get another sheet from Michael and I scrwewed up the first Windscreen by trying to get it to fit too close, but Bill J. sent me another. I know someone will ask about the windscreen tint, so I used Tamiya clear green applied very lightly in severan coars and to finish, it was dipped in Future floor wax. I messed this up a couple of times too, but you can completely clean the paint and the Future off with Windex. Hope this will help. Go back a couple of pages when I started this and the pARTS i USED ARE SHOWN. h.w.
