Forgot to add the mock up with the tires and wheels that I plan on trying to put under this build. I will also be using a Preston's pre-wired distributor on this build.

Thank you gentlemen it should be at least in primer this weekend and start laying some of green and blue down so hopefully I can go over it with the orange next weekend.

Thank you AK but unfortunately I can't get it to the right shade of orange. I've been to every place in town trying to find something similar but unfortunately no such luck. So trying to find some on eBay. Not sure this one will be completed in time. But if not it's OK will just give me the extra time for my tribute to Frank that I plan on building for next month's motm.
