Nice! Any feedback on the body from TBG? May I also ask where you get the repro decals? I am looking to restore my 959 too. Thanks!

I know how hard these can be in painting.you have done a lovely job in capturing the box art paint work. Looks fantastic. Is this a runner?? If it will be pls make a vid

I got the body from TeamBlueGroove. They have an eBay store. It was just meant to be as they are located in Canada just down the highway from me. I couldn't be happier with them, as they threw in a free R5 body and offered me a free spoiler in case I screwed mine up. The decals came from screenprintdigital on eBay again.

It will be a runner once I figure out how to get a motor to stay in place. I am missing some of the smaller parts required to do so. Also I haven't finished the interior or the trim around the windows.
I learned (while trying to paint the turn signals) that it helps to cut your paint brush in half so you can manipulate it better inside the body.
