The gauge decal is installed but was so brittle it ripped when I tried to install it. It will still look decent when the car is done.

Engine bay is almost done.. Its a very simple 4 peice setup that lacks good detail. I painted the valve covers to match the body.

I had to warm the paint then quickly shoot the paint in my unheated garage and then bring it in the house to dry. Not my style , but hey at 15 degrees out there I had to try somthing creative. LOL!

My choice for the 24 hr build. I think its a good kit for this build due to the simplicity of the kit, but still has good detail, except for the engine.
