    Nice finish on the cop car, maybe put a bend in the antenna and clip it to the roof gutter above the driver door. Prevent possible eye injury and fits on shelf better.

      Thank you very much. I've been trying to find the right sized can to bend it around so it's not all wiggly.

      Thank you very much. I had so much fun with it. I'm going to move back to the Texac Station and get it a bit farther along. I will be doing a photo shoot sometime soon (when the weather warms up) where I have all my cars lit up outside with a sunset or sunrise. I've been planning on taking them and the Texaco Station somewhere where I can set them all up at dawn or dusk to take some very cool pictures. Something like a Friday Night car show. I think someday I'll do an OSP car with the MPC cruiser kit, or a combination of that kit and this one. It will fit right in at the City Center building that I plan on building this summer.

I can't wait for the weather to get nice again so I can take this and a few roadsters out and have some picture fun. I learned so much while I was building this kit, and truly enjoyed every minute of it. You know that this made me think that sometime after I finish the Texaco station I'll have to build a City Center for this and the rescue squad truck that I'm going to build here real soon. Thank you again my friend.
