CabDriver Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I've been really looking forward to seeing another of your projects hit the bench John. Back over Christmastime I spent an enjoyable few days going through the dozens of excellent build threads that you've posted here in the past...I've since referred back to them on multiple occasions and continue to re-read them frequently for inspiration. Can't wait to see this one come together! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocking Rodney Rat Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 It's still around, at the Don Garlits Museum of Drag Racing in Ocala, FL. Worth the trip if you ever get the chance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterNNL Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 Great project. The fact that the parts actually exist to build this is very cool. I'll of course be watching closely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claude Thibodeau Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Hi Sir! Impressive work, as usual. This full-bodied liner reminds me of the Barry Setzer monocoque fueler that you recreated a few years ago. Simply stunning! Keep On! CT PS: What happened to the monocoque Mickey Thompson FC you started last year? Just curious... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Claude......My Mickey Thompson F/C is ready for paint and primer......when Covid hit I stopped building for awhile.......then I decided to get back to the bench a few months ago......I wanted to build about 3 builds to get back my Mojo......then finish up the Mickey Thompson F/C cause that car is my all time favorite and wanted to be in the groove before I finished it.......I have one more model I want to build after the Wynnsliner then I'll be ready to finish it.......thanks for asking.

Ian McLaren Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Impressive progress on this project, I really like the way you are approaching it. You have mentioned Chris Sobak Designs a couple of times, is he producing model parts commercially? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
