That looks Sweet, even Racy...Sleek & Sexy! Cool

Honestly, the prop seems bland by comparison to the flair of the fuselage. Any reason you didn't opt for more color there, even black on the hub? Just wondering...

Approved!

The N-number ends with my initials. Before I sold mine, I wanted N35LD, but that was assigned.

Very nice!

What is the ram air scoop near the tail for?

That is ventilation air for the cabin. They changed to this configuration with the 1966 model, but it's a popular retrofit for earlier ones. It improves airflow inside the cabin, compared to the earlier system.

Prior models, like mine, had the scoop further forward, directly over the passenger area, with a hinged movable flap that was a bit of a maintenance problem. You can see the flap above the second of the three side windows on this photo of mine:

That's a nice looking airplane, especially now with its new paint!

I love that green! My one motorcycle regret is that in 1998 I got Kawasaki ZX-9R in candy persimmon red instead of a lime green one.

Gorgeous job! Home run! The gloss is definitely there, I also see the depth of image from the reflection of the picture taker. Super job, what paint? Imron? base clear? Inquiring minds need to know. Thanks.

I always thought a V-Tail with tip tanks was a sharp looking airframe.

I like the paint job a lot. But I’m more impressed they got it done in 24 days.
