Yah, gonna try to possibly start to paint her tomorrow. Got the parts sorted out for what colors go where and what to tape off.
 
i find that for hoses the wires from old headphones works well, and i use different things for spark wires, havnt found any one thing that works perfect for me, although i have found that fishing line, although a bit stiff, makes for a cool effect with the clear line... see my builds for what im talkin about
 
heres the printer cord wire i use for plug wires

i've been thinkin bout pickin up the 1/16 general for the body to put it on my remote control 63 impala lowrider chassis, but unsure if itll fit. id also like to see that ghost of general lee at night :iconbigg:
 
Nice to see every one's builds, cool stuff! Here is one I have been working on. I started building it 4 or 5 years ago and then lost interest. I recently got motivated to finish it.
