You may have only got a couple of poker chips me old mate but she is a dandy looking machine. In fact this is one I have lined up for early next year in a GB, bigger scale though.

I want to do one more Mustang of this one.
I got to do the tail lettering and re-painted the name and numbers for this Reno racer.
John Crocker's last race livery.

A lot of mods on This one. I think the canopy front is the back of a std canopy.

You still did well in my eyes Bill plus I learned something which is great. Curious about the camo on the nose. Your green breaks at the panel line and most photos I've seen have green on the nose. I was wondering if the nose was a replacement on the real aircraft?

It was called the "firewall" pattern, for obvious reasons.
One thing brought up at the comp. Everyone is so intent on smoothing the join at the top of the cowling, we forget there is a seam there!

Thanks Bill. Gonna have to do one because of it's uniqueness.
