Thanks!

Many thanks - like I stated previously, it was your dragster that is going to influence everything that I build going forward. German racer Rico Anthes was the guy who raced a Mercedes alcohol funny car; I remember reading about it about 30 years ago.

Thanks! The body is not chopped, narrowed or sectioned; it is basically a stretched 924.

Thank you!

Thanks!

Thanks - actually, the 924 was originally designed by Volkswagen, but Porsche bought the rights to the car. I used to own a 1980 model and had a blast with it!

Hi, All; This is going to be a rebuild of a model that I built almost 7 years ago for a show hosted by a club that I formerly was a member of. I want to build it more correctly as a funny car that would've run in the early to mid 1980's and with better craftsmanship. These are some of the original build photos. Thanks for looking and comments welcome.

Very clean and nicely done!

Thank you very much - I'm learning a lot just from observing your Camaro build as well as Daniel's dragster. I'll be posting my next project soon.
-
Thanks - I really appreciate it. Your dragster is a benchmark for workmanship that I will strive for in future projects.

Hi, All; The car as seen here is completed. I'll polish it up a bit and post it in the Drag Racing section in the next day or so. Many thanks to those who stopped by for a look and especially those of you who left a comment. They were very inspirational. I'll be posting a new WIP shortly. Thanks again!

1961 Lincoln Continental convertible restoration
John B. replied to Paul Payne's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I have a 61 Continental that was given to me in a bag - literally! Your build is very informative and interesting. -
Thank you much! Here are some photos that I took of the car next to my 2008 Kaase Boss Nine Mustang. It's almost finished.

Incredible work, sir - simply incredible! -
If I didn't know it was a scale model, I would've thought I was looking at Tim McAmis' website! Nice work!
