Somehow I just knew at least part of this build would be blue. Great looking car. Love the hinges on the hood. Tires need a little dirt in the tread, but other than that it perfect. Really like the driver also, makes it just that more real.

Very nice, David.
Looking at your series of pics makes me believe it would be a fun build.
I'm sure I have enough parts and pieces to pull one of these off.
I can remember seeing those old modifieds run at the 1st track I went to as a young lad.

Agreed, David. I think I need "simpler" to get back up to speed. I speed too much time in the redo-engineering aspect, that's a good thing, but not getting much glued together. I will have to say, I have been off for the holidays and have made some good headway on one of my builds.
Got a couple modified/skeeter types started, so I think I'll try to get to those soon too.
Thanks to you and everyone for motivation.......
Happy New Year !!

Well, for once I think I agree with you OND. I keep looking at this and I will indeed put a little heavier grime on the tires. I tend to go very light with the weathering as it is SO easy to overdo. Give me a couple of days and I'll show a photo or two with just a tad more mud on those shoes!

I say put as much or as little dirt anywhere you see fit. It could have just come off the trailer. I don't see any problem with the way you built it at all. Again, great job! OnD, it would be appreciated if you would post examples of your accurate builds. I promise to be gentle! I would really like to see something you have done, on a separate post, of course.:)

I would say the weathering is just about perfect. I really like the light weathering a lot better than those that look like they just ran a mud bog. Was this dry brushed, or airbrushed? This is a real fine old school racer, that would be great in a diorama.
