Thanks Everybody !!

I finally got the correct Chrome paint for the inserts. My first experience with it. I think they turned out OK. Jupiter is 100% DONE.

ONward, as Capt. Rick says.......

Pablo, I made a remake of this body that will fit a modern 4" flexi chassis.
We even used it in one of our IROC type races. The next time you visit the Dungeon I will give you one, I thank you left your lane change card here.
