Very clever build.

Can these be the movie camera rigs for the Ford versus Ferrari movie Go Like Hell?

Very impressive. Looking forward to seeing more.

Dang it, everybody has already used all the adjectives that came to my mind when it saw the build. Thanks for sharing, it is an inspiration.

I am interested in seeing how the foam board works out for you. I have used hard board for my projects but it is harder to cut.

Looks great. I am tempted to go looking for one now.

Are those U joints really articulated on the half shafts?

I am certain this one will go quickly (relatively speaking of course) since you have done the research and are intimately familiar with the subject.

David, I want to wish you well on your new adventure. Gary

Beautiful art. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice build of an iconic Dino.

These came in the mail today, a WIX NAPA version of the 427 Cobra and a Motormax 2005 Ford GT. The WIX Cobra is the Elvis Presley Spin Out movie race version without windshield and is up to their usual high standard but I am a bit disappointed in the finish on the side pipes. The side pipes which are prototypically correct for the movie car but look so much better on the blue and silver WIX Cobras. Franklin Mint released the same Spin Out model but with a guitar. The Motormax Ford GT is pretty much standard fare but I wanted to include this year in my diecast Ford GT collection. It is a bit strange that there are no side windows included. I do prefer the Revell Snap Tite version though.

Oh my! That is so nice,

Nice clean builds. Thanks for sharing.

Super build Larry. Fernando has brought us some really neat resin kits and you did this one proud.

I thought it was just me doing something wrong this morning. Thank you for posting this lost editing function.

Looks display worthy to me. I am in the same camp with you and the others when in comes to race car shine, or lack there of, in that era. Well done and thanks for sharing it with us.

Vinegar and steel wool, great idea. Thanks.

Wow, that is impressive.

I am trying to find a real wide fender one in red I can replicate with the one I just got. Interestingly Majorette released 2 different versions because the rear ends are different. I made the Gulf car from an early release before Majorette did.

Yes, once again you nailed it David with the lighting and atmosphere.

I agree the Majorette GT40 is not that bad. They have now released it in Gulf colors which is appropriate as it is the wide body version but it has no side windows included but the IMC GT40 windows fit perfectly.

Glad to see you brought this one back to life. Well done.

Jason, Scott responded: "The duct tape is made by Detail Master, it's like bmf only a little thicker and has an gray finish."

I am impressed with what you are doing here. The wood weathering is very well done.
