Thanks, Dave. I keep trying to mess up the paint doing the final finishing touches and so far, no major foul ups that can't be fixed with polishing pads. It's way too late to have to get the airbrush back out. That's why I wait till I'm completely finished with the build before I start decaling.

Sneak peek before exhaust painted and hood and trunk pins installed along with headlamp and park lamp covers and gas cap added.

As always Mark, spot on work! Ford Fairlanes made for a great looking race car.

It's completely finished and I'm hoping to do final photos today and get them posted. Came out pretty good and I'm ready to move on to the next build.

Dave, I've been trying to find time to get the finals done but with all the honeydoos before thanksgiving it's been hard to find time.

Boy howdy, amen to that! I have had quite the honeydoo list myself! Didn't realize so much needed to be done.

What did Yoda say? "Do or do not, there is no try". Or something to that effect ;)
