Yea & I have been researching for weeks now & nothing. I was told there are shows where points are awarded for originality but i can find nothing. Also can not find any photos of original undercarrige. Im surprissed that this is not a more common question as many people inquire about proper engine color but then just paint eveything else whatever fancies them.
