Totally Awesome Matt. It's beautiful 😍 Appreciate your replacing that graphic with a new one. That's a testament to your craftsmanship👍

Thanks Dave! Being picky usually pays off!

@@mattkinnard6899 you are the artist and it's your painting. If you aren't pleased with it no one else will be either. It's a fantastic accomplishment with this car. I'm totally impressed

@@ccrx6700 Very kind words! Thanks again.

That car looks amazing, you have done an incredible job, you definitely show your attention to detail, I would have left the crease. But I agree it probably would have been noticed by you all the time, cool they sent you a new one. Can't wait to see you run it down the tracks.

[@mattkinnard6899]

Thanks Pappy! If I put it on with a crease I could not have said that I built it to the best of my ability. So I am pleased I took the effort to have it replaced. I had it on the rails Sunday. Rolls easy and looks sharp.

@@mattkinnard6899 awesome, most definitely Matt you are a man with great ability and detail on the projects you work on.

When you get a wrinkle cant you try the heat gun and re- flatten? Or was the wrinkles on the accutual lettering? Car looks great!

[@mattkinnard6899]

I may attempt that as practice. But I did not want to risk it on the car! It seemed to be wrinkled enough that the glue on the back was stuck to itself.

Hi Matt. I am finally at thew stage of mounting the wood deck to the car frame. I notice in your videos I don't see the carriage bolts or any holes for the bolts or your seats in the deck? Is there another video with that process? I was curious. Take care. Marty

[@mattkinnard6899]

The hole to secure the deck were in place from Titan. The seats I drilled holes where I needed them in the deck, and the bolts go through the frame. I don't think there is a video on that part.

[@mzaccaria6291]

@@mattkinnard6899 Sorry Matt maybe I'm not explaining myself clearly. The holes in the metal frame are there I'm talking about the holes in the wood deck. Question for you with the under floor under the top deck how did you get the deck to sit so flush with the top of your end frames
