Personally, I LIKE the wing!  BTW..if you can't get to the local hobby shop, or if it's 'after hours' and they're closed..go to Walmart (or other hardware type stores) and buy the large "For Sale" signs (or For Rent, etc.). I use these all the time. Get a BIG sheet for slightly over 2 bux! I'm pretty sure they're around .015 or .020 thick, and they ARE styrene. Yea, you have to sand off the 'printing' on them, but that's not all that hard. Super glue works great on them, and I've actually not had many probs gluing over the 'printing' without sanding, but it does work WAYYYY better with it sanded and cleaned. Ron |

Update pic. I did mount the body to the chassis and decided to go with a custom paint job. I'll show how I mounted it another time. Little sheet metal effect. I plan on adding some flames to the front.  |

MOPAR.

Thanks Tom. I love Mopars. Check out my avatar. I don't have any Mopars that need painted right now. How about sending me one and I'll paint it for you? I figure since you have to put up with Phil, it might ease the pain a little. ;D

Hey SAM
Thanks for the offer to paint a MOPAR body for me. It will
take me a little time to get one ready Ive had a idea for a PRO
MOD car that with one of your custom paint jobs will be a cool
car.
THANKS AGAIN
TOM
PS I forgot to thank JAG HOBBIES for the body I got for KDOGS
what the VW say to the chevy contest.

Mustangs looks good!!! I'm guessing you masked the car and cut the flames out??? What type/brand wheels are those if I may ask??? Love seeing your fantastic colorful work!!! ...RM

Ahh yes. Kevan's masks are REAL nice. Also got another place to get them too. I'll have to look up the addy but his name is Dan Douglass, t3cochise online. Both Kevan and Dan are good friends too. I'll check out those wheels asap! ;D Ron  |
