What a superb engine and cars. A real life dedication that survived its master. I like sheet metal for cab and hood. Bending it isn´t so hard.....until you arrive in corners. I´ve no idea how it can be shaped on 3 faces without huge press. Any idea anyone ? Like that EL caboose, it reminds me former BAR C98 that i made a small deposit in it. Dealer was right. It was surrended by so much junks, that i finally backed up and it ended up being scrapped. Sad cause it was a really strong and heavy car that had character and potential. But since tons of cash can be burned in that kind of project, i hate to say that but i made the right move. I already burned and its really the right word in my preservation life. Better to stay in smaller scales.
