By the way, I'm totally with you on deviating from the 1:1 in grille colour. IIRC, only R/Ts and Super Bees had blacked out grilles, and even then it was only the vertical "teeth" in the grilles that were blacked out. Whomever did the 1:1 messed up badly on the grilles.
Yours, on the other hand, look great! I can't help it, I keep going back and looking at your Coronet models. They are stunning.
