Luke, thanks for the kind words. Your car is coming right along nicely. We're in the mountains playing in the snow a little. I'll get you some more pictures the first of the week. When the parts for the meth get here I'll get you some pics of that as well.

I posted on here I was looking for a nitrous nozzle for the purge and didn't find anything I wanted. Not a fan of those long hard looking lines and wanted something cleaner looking. Wanted the spray to fire straight up somehow in the middle of the car towards the front without drilling a huge hole in the hood. Explained this to William and he sent me the photo of it finished. Honest to god I had to call him and ask him where the "H" the nozzle was. I marked it on the last photo. I'm meticulous about things on this toy and when I ask him to make it small he really listened..
Do have the screens in and fat daddy's now from CHIP so she's coming right along.
