Looking real nice!.... can't wait to see it complete :D

P.S; did you drop the shock mounts in with your other parts in the peroxide bath?

@DerbyDan: yes the shock towers were treated as well

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm having fun with this one, taking care of every single part and trying to use a minimum of new parts (that is screws so far). Front end is now ready to receive nose tubes and turnbuckles. Got clean ball cups? Stay tuned buddies!

Some update, finally with some sunlight, added e-clips, shocks and turnbuckles. Now onto wheels, the OE ones were not in the kit, so I'll have to dig into my stuff. I am also looking for the AE black spur if anyone has a spare one...

Finally found some time to take pictures of the early Team Car sitting on wheels. I tried to replicate the car on the side of the original box as much as I could.
