Bill, You're really nailing the #12. Your build is an exact duplicate.

Back in the Day: You could have bought this for $5,000 with a 427 TRACO and extra wheels. I know: As an 18 year old kid I responded to the ad in Hot Rod magazine but it was sold!

Alright one done ! I should have all 6 done by this weekend. headers and sidepipes were less work for roadsters so they will get finished first.

Bill, All 3 Vettes are simply out of this world. I gotta admit that the Sunoco Penske is my favorite if for no other reason then I'm a huge, and I mean huge Penske fan. Been that way since the day that I met both him and Mark Donahue at Bridgehampton in 1967 for the USSRC race.

Bill, I'm just blown away by each of your Corvette builds in the Vette Group. Each one is an outstanding build on it's own, and each one has a dead on perfect paint job.
As for my vote on the next Group build, I'd really love to see as complete storyline for the Iconic Chaparrals of Jim Hall. I'm just not a great Ferrari fan (never forgave them for backing out of the Ford deal), so they'd always be last on my list for projects like your group builds.

thanks guys, a fun project and the HRM transkit roadster stood out for me. A great detailed kit and a high quality body casting. Waiting for parts to build the 1/12 trumpeter GT40 and will most likely finish up Shelby flatbed hauler. I'm a diehard Ford fan and bleed blue, but second to anything Shelby American Chaparrals are some of my all time favorite race cars. A Chaparral history build would be a huge project and i don't have model kits of the first couple Chaparrals made. Might have to do build those in groups, there is at least 6 versions of the 2d only.
