I remember the original MPC Don Gregory #7 Jegs release, built a couple of them when I was a teenager and dinosaurs roamed east TN. Your's far surpasses the original design.

I know that my friend "Speedracer" remembers dinosaurs roaming around TN, he's older than me!,🤣

This is what I used to weather around the exhaust pipes. I opened the Ends of the pipes and painted the inside flat black then used the soot to weather the outside
