Come on wayne, wheres the painted shell pics? That diamond white will have gone off in the tin!!
Paul... I'll put a load on as soon as I take the pics lol..I've been told that the bay is getting a clean & makeover before Ford Royalty enters to be painted!
some parts have returned from the powder coaters.... still waiting on the wheels though... IMG_1884.jpgIMG_1885.jpgIMG_1886.jpgIMG_1887.jpgIMG_1888.jpgIMG_1889.jpgIMG_1890.jpgIMG_1892.jpgIMG_1893.jpgIMG_1894.jpgIMG_1895.jpgIMG_1896.jpg
Paints going down....IMG_1899.jpgIMG_1900.jpgIMG_1901.jpg
This might be a daft question but I'll ask it anyway.
You've made the your wings fully bolt on have you, all the way round?
But yet decided to paint them on the car aswell anyway?
Im not sure I understand the question Rob? but the Front of the wings are tacked in place the rest is bolted, purely for quick removal in case I run out of talent on a track day... and yes its painted as opposed to not being painted?
Looking great wayne!! When is the battery getting connected?
Batteries not included in this toy!
Ok I think the fact that they're tacked on at the front answers the question really then. The point I was trying to make was that why weren't they painted off the car if they were full bolt on, but they're not.
Are you sure? That front panel doesnt have a Provision for a starter handle!
