I pronounce this project complete!

I installed the Soundcar and speaker today.

This was a fun project. Thanks to occasional contributor Linn Moedinger for a neat 3d print. Now that Linn is retired hopefully he will post in these parts more. I leave it to Jim to continue to post updates of his car. Thanks for all the contributions that made this a better model.

Speaking of which, there is another conversation occurring about lettering. This model uses Thinfilm decals, which are the imitation gold. They do fade right into the green, just like the real thing. I have been wondering how Derrell Poole got such an opaque effect on the cars he printed for me? I now suspect he use some Cimarron decals--I had forgotten about those. Maybe after a few years these two cars will return to the paint shop for some Delux Gold lettering.
