I am liking how this is turning out. Although you definitely need to take some higher resolution pictures! Those thumbnail sized pics are a bit hard to tell the details in.
I'm assuming the pods will be sized to hold 52mm/2" gauges?

looks pretty good. although as stated above the pics are small and I cant make them bigger.

Add me to the list of potential buyers! If this turns out as well as I think it will then I'll definitely be picking it up.

This ever finish out

You made this look easy. Been toying around with the idea of making one. I'll have to start this after I finish painting Hozzmans headlight covers. Maybe I'll have time after this Nike job and Cars land jobs are finished.
