Hey, long time no see Brett Honcho coming along nicely

[JTank70]

Very good job so far I'd say.

After looking at a number of these, I kind of wish I left my windows clear on mine. I used Tamiya smoke on them. I like it pretty well, but I think I like the clear better. Oh well I guess I'll have an excuse to get another body someday.

Did you drill out the rear cross brace light buckets to accept the seperate round light buckets? Is that how you ended up with a vent hole in your digit?

[big bronco]

yeah! no doubt! thanks. i havent been doing much with these things lately but now im getting back in...
