I think it's ready for the paint shop:





Adding the details since my last progress report, every time I thought I was done or almost done, I'd discover more details that I couldn't ignore.

But I think this is it . . . for now.

Howdy Mike,

Nice work on the car.  The detail is excellent.  What color will you paint the car?

No bottom stripes?  That avoids the controversy on the ordering of the colors.   ;D   When did MDT start adding the stripes?   Great result!

Thanks, Dave.

The photo I worked from (on the first page of this thread) did not have the stripes.  An early scheme, I assume.  I don't know when stripes started to be used.
