F1 engine

Great news!  I'm back to building the F1 car.  After a long sabbatical to get squared away in school again I set up the work table and pulled out the model.  As of now I have assembled the front suspension and gotten the front portion of the car mounted to the under-chassis.  I am in the process of assembling the engine and rear suspension now.  However I may hit another wall, the 8 year old Ferrari Red paint I have been using is dying.  It has become so thick its like spreading silly putty, I may have to delay until I get some more off line.  (It is Humbrol gloss #19 from England).  This paint has served me so well though, I believe I have used it in nearly a dozen models including painting 4 full cars with it.
