Codi Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Seeing as this part of the forum is near or at the bottom of the list on Topics, I sometimes forget to stop by. My loss. Great googily moogily man, the last pics and detailed you shared John are awesome. 10 minutes and a cup of coffee and I'll be done checking out all the cool stuff you've done again. You're nearing the finish line aren't you? cheers, tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooneyzs Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 John.... That is some Alclad goodness right there. Everything looks great and the weathering on the tires is just killer. this build is sure moving along. You are in the home stretch for sure and should be done with really soon.

Codi Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Is it fair to ask John, of the models you've built, that you have a favorite or 2? Surely this one would be high on the list. Still loving that paint and the shot of all 4 tires from the back is a giggle all itself. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
