  1. Personally I like LiL John. It's cleaner looking and looks all business. The Frantic Ford looks too busy for me. It is a great looking Funny but just too many decals. I tend to lean towards LiL John anyway because I wrote him many years ago about one of his early cars. He was kind enough to write me back with photos I had never seen before. Or, build both as I'm sure your hand is skilled enough to make both of them outstanding for all of us to enjoy! Looking forward to seeing what you choose - they're both great either way.
  2. Beautiful..!!!! Very well done and looks amazing! I work for Gooding & Co. and we are selling an original Cheetah at our auction in Pebble Beach in a couple of weeks (it is also red with red interior). A guy I work with is 88 yrs old (still working!) and he had a 1965 Cobra 427 that he bought brand new. He mentioned to me yesterday how he used to race against Cheetah's back in the day (1965-67) Nice to see your build.
  3. I just sold these 3 kits and they were MINT inside. Had them about 25 years - sold them for approx $60 each.
  4. That looks great!!! Love the color combo.
  5. It looks great!! Really clean build and very realistic looking. I've built several motorcycles myself and love this one.
  6. Incredible..!!!! This is turning out really nice. Stance, hood fit, colors etc makes you think you're looking at a real car!
  7. What a beautiful build..!!!
  8. It really turned out beautiful. You have a good eye and hand! Have you tried to take black & white photos to match the original b/w pics from the period?
  9. Looking good..!!!! I always liked these and wanted to build one myself
  10. IVO would be proud of this model!!! You did a beautiful job putting this together. I really like this one. I worked with IVO for years on his cars (4 eng - 2 eng - T-bucket etc) and he loved to tell many stories when he was sitting there with you. NOTE: - One of the first times I've seen "Amos Satterlee" decal on a model. Amos built the motor (392 Chrysler Hemi) for my Blown Fuel Altered - MAGIC MUFFLER FIAT. Amos sadly passed away some time back and was referred to as "Famous Amos" since he built so many World Championship motors from Dragsters to Drag Boats. He's legendary! Again, great job!
  11. Would you have a photo of the front suspension? Great build!
  12. What front suspension are you going to use because I've always had a problem finding the suspension for Pro Gas or Pro Stock cars in 1/16th ??
  13. Outstanding..!!!!! I work on real Bentley's all the time and this build is very beautiful. Nice work!
  14. Fantastic build!! I went to Mission Raceway in 1978 (from Victoria) so I was probably listening to you then if that's when you were announcing.
