Thanks for the comments and for stopping by guys.
I'm not a fast builder so it might take awhile before we get to paint.

A couple more shots.

You'll have to stay tuned as I haven't decide yet I'm still think about painting on the outside or inside it will be a stock Scout color for the period.

Thanks Cory .. it's very resonably priced but it will take 6 to 8 months to get just the chassis
