| Yo BWD, I use clay. I am by some vague definition an automotive sculptor. All my tools are hand-me downs from the golden age of auto sculpting in the late 60's - early 70's. Clay is forgiveable. Other mediums such as superfoam, cardboard, beadboard, not so forgivable. You screw up, and you trash that piece of material and work thus far and start over. Screw it up again, and trash it again. And god knows I can screw things up. I have 50 true sweeps, hoggers, scrapers with super fine teeth, basically stuff you can't buy anywhere. I live in the midwest of Mi. where all cars orginated from. Conrad, I wanted to add you are right. Off each of the five cars there were differences. for example: those flaps that sit on the lower rear air intakes got flipped around completely on one of the cars. the outside shocks (at the front) on a couple of the cars were put on differently. I can never remember the numbers on those cars. which car is what number. I also noticed that the Bruce Gordon pics are somewhat different than what ended up as the actual car itself. So possible in the molding process, things got shifted, or something. But noticably different.

| Hey Youngbat, that make sense using clay....I love the fact that your Tumbler is so visually correct. I think it gives us all a reference from which to work from. I've been using your pics for reference since the other cars are so different.....Thanks for your input.....You make the impossible look easy.....The sign of a true craftsman.....BWD
