  1. Fits well but needs some refining around the edges.
  2. 550 spyder obtained from the late John Johnson about 15-20 years ago.
  3. Plug, made from epoxy putty, for vacuum forming the rear window. I squish it into the opening, then carve and sand it to shape.
  4. What? What? Beck replica?? You been holding out on us.
  5. Which kit are you considering getting? ACME president Webers has the Aston Martin DB2, the shape of the body is not quite correct. However, I have the 1937 Alfa 2900B and 1927 Renault record car and both are good. If you ever show up at an ACME meeting, we could bring them along.
  6. Nice work!
  7. Rear end looking good.
  8. I continue to hack away at it...
  9. Two cups of java to kick the ol' brain cells into gear and I is crankin'!
  10. Refining the rear.
  11. I'll be watching...
  12. Progress is slow..
  13. I'm looking forward to a full day of work today.
  14. I wake up to the smell of Bondo dust in the morning...
  15. Slapping on the bondo.
  16. Good article on the car: https://winstongoodfellow.com/ferrari-330-gtc-speciale-living-like-royalty/#!
  17. Here is a link to the Photobucket of Niko Neimi, who mastered the 500 Superfast. Scroll down to find the Superfast: https://s20.photobucket.com/user/nniemi/library/Scale Kraft 212MM?page=1
  18. Airtrax did the 500 Superfast, I don't have the Perma-grit cutters.
  19. The de Rethy car styling is a continuation of Pinifarina's top of the line extended nose/ oval opening started in 1957 with the Superfast; and used in all special coachbuilt cars as the 1964 500 Superfast and 1966 365 California Spyder. However, it incorporated the extended C-pillar of the upcoming 1968 Dino. Pf stylists are not well known, but I think all are the work on Aldo Brovarone.
  20. Sometimes I use a jewelers file, sometimes a weed rasp.
  21. Ha! If I had a cad file of this, I would print it and it would literally snap together. And I've done it - see my Fiat Supersonic.
  22. Implant surgery complete.
