Thank you Bigford, i've been trying to find a 1/14 scale shotgun I could use for at gearstick, but cant seem to find one, I'm trying to fid a balance between modern and oldschool custom. I got a mercury sleeper for it, I got of of ebay, but it got a long way to go before it looks like the one in the picture, its a bit more rough around the edges then i thought it would be.

The pick of the Mercury sleeper you have up is my sleeper it was the first one it does not take much to sand it and JB weld it together and then polish it.

I know Tamiya Cowboy, I looked at your KH, with the mercury sleeper, with envy many times, i send my mercury to a mate of mine, he is making a new roof for it and a couple of other changes, can't wait to get it back along with the rest of my alu parts, all polished, so i can finish this build ;)

Love this build. All the shiny bits look great, its something to consider other than painting them. It'll be my first time cutting and working a body. Looks like you have a lot of practice the way some of interior and ext mods came out, very nice!
