| I'd consider welding some washers to the chassis if you want to go with some panels. Other then that yeah looks good. |

| Yeah, looks good so far! I collect HW's too. I've got about 800 or so in the blisters and about 250 out of the package that are all vintage (redlines to the early 80's) Matt |
