Really coming together nicely, David. Engine looks awesome as well as the huge tires. Can't wait to see the finished product.

This will definitely be one wild looking car when done....

Does the driver have Blue Cross before you start cutting on him???    ::) ;) ;D

Nice stance so far on this one david, I see you had to set the cage back also. Not much room to work with on these driver compartments.

Love it David. The Driver is one of those guys you want with you in a Foxhole when the bad guys are headed towards your location.... Good job on his surgery. I like that drill bit...Do you remember where you got it? I need something exactly like that to use like you did....Thanks.

Hey Mark, I get those driver figures from Larry at Big Donkey. They come with two different torso's and a handful of different heads that are wearing all sorts of period helmets and goggles. Here's what you get:

They are kind of a pain to get in the car sometimes but every now and then I really enjoy having a "driver" because it just adds so much to the build!

Its cool that they made it 1/25 scale, with different heads. I put a 1/24 scale driver in a 1/25 scale car once, and even though I tried to shorten him, and thin him out, it just didn't look right. Thanks for the info.
