Starting a new project today...Will be using a 1997 Formula 1LE as a guide for the correct under hood/drive train colors/details...Lots more to come in the next few days.. 

Edited December 31, 20214 yr by TWO LANE BLACK TOP

Have gotten a good start...Engine/Transmission assembly almost complete...

Prepping drive train for paint and detailing...

Still trying to decide what color scheme to use...Bright Blue Metallic or Arrest me Red...Any input on the color would be appreciated...

Yeah I know they both need a good wash...

Blue for me mate 👍😀

Nice, looks like some fun!

I would go with blue as well.

Yup, blue bro

Mrs. Two lane likes the blue also...So blue it is...This was the closest color I could find...Actually matches better than I thought would..Looks almost exact in person..Will be be focusing on getting the body and everything blue painted today...

Well that didn't go as well as expected....Completely F#÷ked up the paint on the body...Will let it get good and cured for a couple days and then attempt to fix it..

That's what happens when I get in hurry...should have used a couple of light coats rather than trying cover it all at once...

Have been making some Progress...Have detailed and assembled most of the front suspension..Have also put the engine/Transmission assembly in...Also most of the exhaust system...Will be focusing on the rear suspension and the rest of the exhaust over the next day or so...Have tried to capture as much detail as I can...Having hard time getting the lighting right for it to show up as well as it looks in person...Will have to crawl under the car to look at the gas tank...As I don't remember what color it actually is...And I will try to match it as close as possible...More to come in next 24 hrs...

From what I recall the fuel tank a dull silver/gray metal color.

It's looking good Two Lane!

Last Indian..

That's actually pretty cool especially like the oval track side kickout oil pan...Assuming that is an oval track camshaft also...Solid Roller...Probably Around 260 duration @ .50 with .770 lift...109 degree LSA...

Frosty...

Crawled under the car...The gas tank is a flat medium gray primer looking color... Really Close to the flat gunship gray color that I used to paint it with...Tried to get a photo of the tank...But that was pretty much impossible without jacking the car up and putting it up on a couple of jack stands..Trying to get all the under body details/Colors as close as I can...Unfortunately I'm getting old and half blind and not nearly as steady as I once was... That said... I'm still happy with the results...So far...

Will probably get a good start on the rear suspension here in next little while...

Looks great to me bro!

Have pretty much finished the rear suspension...Still have to do a little paint touch up here and there...

Will probably start on the interior details next...

Great job.  Have a hard time fitting in working on the cars let alone building models.  Used to Love it.

Great job two lane !!! You must have good eye sight !!
