I have a respectable Cobra library but I don't have this book. Not likely I'll be able fill this cap unless they see fit to doing another printing.

Nice race team Gene. I was contemplating a Ranchero tow vehicle as well. I have a trailer built already. As for the Falcon chassis is nearly finished.

I knew of Tom but didn't know him personally, my avatar is that of AFX slot cars. My condolences to you Art and his family.

Super clean as always - very nice.

I'm happy with my wheel choice for the Falcon but good to know Radir wheels can work for future projects-thanks for the photos. The chassis I used came from the stock plus kit. I also have the convertible and if I'm not mistaken it has the same chassis. Don't have the street & strip or the custom version.

Not much bench time at the moment Joe. Hope I can find some time this weekend.

Thanks again for the comments. I agree Martini has done some great liveries thorough the years, their "Hippie" cars are some of my favorite.

Clean fabrication work. Getting everything to fit right is essential IMHO. From what I have seen of your builds I can tell it's important to you too.

AMT, Revell, Round2 etc. are finally recognizing the importance of nice tires.

55 Euros = $67.86 at the current exchange rate. Looking at $80 with shipping I would guess.

Bought these on ebay.

Don't use their product but I have always liked Marlboro's livery and Lancias.

They don't allow punting the guy ahead of you out of the way on local short tracks, at least not the ones I've attended. Don't understand why it's encouraged at the highest level of the sport.

Scale Coach Works. The FIA roadsters didn't have suitcase bumps at the beginning of the '64 season they were added to some (not all) the cars when they were sent to Europe (later in the year) to comply with the FIA rules of the time.

Beautiful build Gary. How did you accomplish the Corvette?

Nice work Joe. I built the same Cobra, used after market decals to get all the required #9s and roundels needed.

Watched the end of the 500 yesterday, I typically only tune in for the end of NASCAR races anymore if I watch at all. Don’t like that you can just wreck the leader on the last turn and win the race. The Xfinity Series race on Saturday, the last 10 laps took 2 hours(!) because they just kept taking each other out. Not sure I call that racing.

Thanks for the comments gentlemen. Kurt the wheels are as they come in the kit. The enhancements I can recall: lowered the stance added missing roll cage bars added electrical kill and fire extinguisher switches added pneumatic jack air hose fitting wired the control boxes in the interior added a racing harness

Very nice Bruce. Think this is the only built version of this kit I've ever seen.

Love it.

Nice trading with you too Terry (Hi-Po)

Yes that's the box art for the funny car chassis Maverick kit, with the driver seated on the center line
