Nitrozilla Posted October 24, 2011 Share Posted October 24, 2011 Strap in for another wild ride. Mixed emotions about using an award winning build to create another one. True test of intestinal fortitude. I've hacked on a finished area of a build, but never converted a finished one into something else. You keep finding new ways to raise the bar John.

Chuck Most Posted October 26, 2011 Share Posted October 26, 2011 Pretty nice build so far, might need to check your spelling of the driver seeing it's provided on the first picture you posted. Fixed YOUR missing apostrophe. You're welcome. Looking pretty cool, John. Didn't you build a drag car similar to this one a while back- Buick body with four engines?

Nitrozilla Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I can already see and smell the clouds of smoke fryin' off those big meatys !! Did they ever figure out how to debug the steering on that thing ?? I'll bet a new one from scratch with todays technology would rock the crowds. No need for hi tech graphics though. Let the engines do the talkin'. She's gorgeous John. Think I'll stick around 'til it's done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Kucaba Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 I have that kit in the pile. Good to see how you did the details. And as usual,a flawless execution. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted October 28, 2011 Share Posted October 28, 2011 Wow, great paint job and decaling. Engines are spectacular, as always. Talking about fast project... Your all builds come together really fast... Same time when John builds superdetailed build with large modifications, I can get one engine finished... And that's not super detailed. So this must be really fast if you're talking about fast project. But it's already painted and that frame combination is already done, must say, that it's fast. Thanks for sharing these WIP projects with us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
