Very nice!  :thumbsup:

I was wondering, what did you use for spark plug wires?  I just use thread but it doesn't bend.  I've used craft wire too.

   Very cool.  I really hate the cold so this winter all I have been doing is playing with my models. I got 4 new dioramas done. I have also done some dio's with the 1/64 scale diecast cars also. But my  home computer  crashed so I am unable to post any picts. till I can get a new one. Hopefully soon tho.

Someone posted a link here to order them back in early September. They were on back order for quite a while. I can't find my receipt to give you the name of the dealer.   :banghead:
