Maserati 3500 gt, customized.This kit, or the Monogram reissue, for a starting point. Or a Ferrari 250 Berlinetta. There was also a similar 250 with a straighter rear fender. Or for a real challenge.

Beautiful car and model! http://www.italianhorses.net/DB/330-512-Monza-Dino.htm#330 - 365 - 412 provides a detailed list of 330P4 kits, curtesy of Alex Kustov. The Union kit is still available.

Excellent in all respects.
-
Excellent! Love that weathered chassis.
-
Well done!
-
You've made this look very realistic, not an easy task. Your work on the grille and wheels, wood grain and raising the headlights all help.

I use this method for pouring resin into molds - it works very well.

I keep a few small pieces of drawer liner (the rubber-coated type) for opening stuck lids. Also as a base for sawing or drilling small parts. I do wish Model Master paints had plastic lids with inner plastic liners similar to most other model paint makers.

This is the only automotive item (the Rolls-Royce Flying Lady) that this car's "wings" remind me of.

http://www.scaleplasticcars.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=24373 has a fix for hidden Photobucket photos. I don't have any PB pix, so I can't try this. Good luck.

Convincingly realistic!

Tasteful! -
Too cute! Great build!
-
Very distinctive. And well done.
-
Wonderful!
-
Crazy good!

If you cover the top 1/3 of each headlight (no extension), you could give the front a modern, agro look to go with the new grille. Good work on the rear window. I imagine you're planning to lower the suspension maybe 1/8 inch? This is coming along very well.

Mr. Drysdale, I respectfully submit that, since radical customs like yours are only seen on ModelCarsMag once in a blue moon at best, you owe the few custom builders MORE PHOTOS! Think of the younger builders who have never seen a custom model car contest!
-
For reissues, I'd like the foreign cars done by U.S. companies, primarily the Aurora series which included the Maserati 3500 GT, and also the MPC Fiero, Revell Porsche 928, etc.
-
Very good!
-
With the greenhouse moved so far back, how will the driver get in and out? It looks like you've also moved the rear axle way back. Please, more photos!
-
Well done and very original. Excellent work on fitting the air cleaner and clear headlights. BTW, I've used a NASCAR chassis (or parts) under several of my builds too.
-
The drawing in the upper left corner of one of the early photos shows how well you planned this extremely radical custom. Very, very impressive.
-
WOW!

Monogram Ferrari GTO 1/24 Scale the 5 year build
GerN replied to Funkychiken's topic in WIP: Model Cars
I built one of these 48 years ago, but not nearly as good as your version. Very clean and realistic. Hope the paint finally starts cooperating.
