Great save! Yes indeed, Gene Winfield as well as all the 1:1 custom painters that can deftly throw down a fade job make it look SO easy. I've done a few scale fade jobs and I STILL feel like I don't know what I'm doing lol Looking forward to seeing your final result!

Fantastic work on this! Customs are very difficult to build, but they are the most fun in my opinion 😎👍 Very clean work and obviously well thought out!

Fantastic build! Great custom mods on an unusual subject 😎👍

I dont know much about this show as this year will be my first experience participating in it, but it looks like a fun one to attend:

Thanks! Once I discovered the 1:1 High and Mighty, it didn't take long for my off-centered mind to come up with this idea 🤪

Hehe! Thanks man! 👍

Thanks so much! This is one the rare builds for me where all my wacky idea(s) came together nicely 🤪

I'm so glad you like it! Don't feel bad.....I find that exact replicas are hard to build. The pressure to get all the details as accurate as possible can be tough to navigate. Oh man, I would love to see a 51 chevy version! 😁👍

Thanks for following along! And it took me less than a year to finish which is a new record for me 🤪 lol

Thanks man!🙂

Yes, that's very cool!😎 The historical eras of hot rodding, custom car building, drag racing is fascinating to me. It's very satisfying to pull from history and add our own creativity and spin to things👍

Thanks so much! Not all my ideas work out lol but this build came together pretty well!

Thanks! Yeah It's a pretty close match to the original 1:1 car's blue primer. The color is Tamiya Coral Blue (TS-41) with Tamiya Flat Clear on top (TS-80)👍

Thanks so much!👍

Thanks! I usually build traditional customs so it was a nice to take a break from my usual subject matter and get a little 'wild and crazy' 🤪
