Hello, It seems the Heller kit has nice wheels but I haven't been able to find a decently priced one. Ok, repeat with me: BOX STOCK... BOX STOCK... I can hear Joel laughing... Thanks, Ismael

Ismael, You better believe that I'm laughing my socks off. It's like money in the bank if we were betting on it.

Hello, Just exercising the basics. Working some sink marks after re-shaping and cleaning the grille opening as per references. The exhaust is molded solid as expected. No real place where I could split and use aluminum tubing. So I'm just carefully drilling the tips. One almost done, the other still untouched. This makes a big difference. Thanks, Ismael

Ismael, I'd say that you nailed the drilling out of the one exhaust pipe. The real challenge is getting the 2nd one just as perfect.

Hello, Second one drilled. Also scribed between them for separation. Thanks, Ismael

Yep, looks better. You should brush the snow off it though.

Paul, Good one !!
Ismael, the 2nd pipe looks identical to the 1st, which looks perfect. If it was me, I'd have screwed up the 2nd one as I usually do. The separation between the two exhaust pipes looks good. With a black was after painting it will look like two completely separate pipes for sure.

just for fun (and inspiration)
I don't know what happened, the photo just disappeared!
Try again
It's a box frame, not a tube frame. My bad

Ismael, The metal radiator screening does indeed look quite good.
