She is quite the looker, Earl. The cab was simply paneled over in wood with the steel still underneath. Lots of little details added though. I love how they made the injectors have a top check and inlet into the old whistle port up front a la K36.

Here is a photo of what she looked like while at Kings Dominion.

KD 552

The 3' crown I started on at Six Flags in St. Louis is pretty plain looking in comparison, even to 552's original look.
