Hi Randy,
You give me a bright idea to make the joints in the tie-rod using heat shrink tubes. Do you make your own rubber boots?

Hi Randy
This is absolute fantastic!!!!
Sorry to repeat myself always!!!
I still think you should Display the brass work as it is (no painting) once all parts are made. And Show a "construction / rebuild process" as a Display to be able to see all the Details later.
Best regards,
Michael

Hi Folks,
Thank you Greg
Hi Bruce, Thanks and am pretty good with the grandkids
Hi Ck, thank you and the boots are aftermarket items 'Tuner Model Manufactory' trimmed the ends off these...
Thank you Russell !!
Hello Michael, We will see about the paint
Thanks Cedric, You are already at this level, just a different medium !
Martijn, Glad you like it !
Thanks Marlborored!
This car raced in the '69 Le Mans with a 'special' radiator. It was brass and copper instead of the usual ally one. It also had a small oil cooler up front.
Reference pic of my car ....
My attempt,
Thank you for looking in !!
