Love em'! The Camino is especially tasty...Ashamed to admit I've never seen the flick but will have to now...

Excellent, neat as a pin...

Wow, I couldn't glue two engine halves in that time period. Super clean and very appropriate.

Wow, that really cool! Never seen one of those built, you did a great job...

Wow, worth the wait...beautiful and super clean!

PLEASE stop posting these midgets! I have hundreds of kits that need building and the last thing I need to do is to go out and get another one... Seriously though, very nice work!

Very well done!

Very unique and very well executed...

Amazing!!! Are the Tempests resin? What did you use for chassis? Again, just awesome.

Does model building get any better than this? I think not! The cake is gone and this thing took it. You are supernatural Mr. T...

Cool! Always loved the ad showing this car shutting down Dyno...

Wow!! That is just beyond cool and immaculately built as usual...Too much.

My goodness!! Doesn't get any cleaner than that...

Very original and just a tad insane...OK, lots insane.

I just wet myself...I knew this was gonna' be nice but...Wow. Splendid in every way Tim!!

Has there ever been a more beautiful car? Great build of a fantastic subject. 50's-60's Ferrari kits should never go out of production.

That is just incredibly well done...nicely photographed as well.

What an amazing job you did on this!! The paint is fantastic as is the rest.Just wow...

This sounds like something you could do with an ordinary inkjet printer and a photoshop type program...results would probably be a lot nicer than the Sharpie route. Do you have a way to scan the decals? I'd be willing to help you with this.

Nobody asked me, but for those who want something close to Alclad without as much effort try some Ace Hardware store brand Metallic mirrored silver. I applied it over grey Duplicolor primer and unlike most chrome paints it doesn't wrinkle. All the brightwork save the rims on this bike was done this way since I couldn't afford to send the pieces off to be plated...Which, ultimately is the only way to get real chrome.

Wow, great build of a beautiful car. Outstanding.

Thanks! The 'blue lines' where done with Model Master acrylic on the vinyl Goodyear Blue Streaks that seemingly come in every AMT kit...and no, my hand isn't that steady: It's pretty easy to scrape away the boo-boos with an X-acto knife.

What everybody else said...Very well done!

Cheap-o that I am, I found a way to do inkjet decals with white areas. It does require a little patience and, depending on the decal, a steady hand. All it boils down to is this: print a reversed version of your decal on clear decal paper, clearcoat, and then brush paint the white and lighter colored areas with Testor's flat white. Let dry and then simply apply the decal paint side down. Here's a few I did this way using a ten-year-old 50 dollar HP printer... The Pennzoil decal is from a kit sheet but the Frankenstein image was done using the method described. These decals were done the same way except they were painted with decanted Testor's one-coat Inca gold...didn't even clearcoat 'em.
