Intake tubing and filters, which one looks better to you guys. Air ducts made from electrical wire with phone wire wrapped around. May wrap some thin strips of tape before being painted. This is the air inlet in the rear hatch.

Got a little done over the last few days. Added some details to the bottom of the frame. Painted the frame with some Tamiya Gunmetal. Finished up the fuel tank with some carbon fiber decals. Installed the suspension. And modified a couple of intake tubing and filters. Thanks.

another stunning build by the master, awesome paint and craftsmanship,cant wait to see what you do next.

amazing build

looking good, do you have any pictures of the motor.

great save and the car looks greeeaaaaattt!!!!!

Well now that I finished the 68 Pontiac Banshee I can devote more time to this build. Worked on the frame a little and mocked up some front inner fenders.

Awesome work going on here, cant wait to see more.

looks cool, color and wheels really stand out.

looks awesome John, great job bringing this to life

Thank for your comment and thanks for looking.

Thanks for your comment. You are correct on the fate of the F-88 it fell victim to the powers that may be at GM. But the concept survived and not destroyed, it sold a few years ago at Barrett- Jackson auction for close to 2 million I believe. So I thought it deserved to be built in plastic. It should be here in the under glass section if you want to see it, but I did post a couple of pictures here for you. And yes the hood does close all the way on this one, I dont remember why it was not closed in these pictues.

Thanks everyone for your comments, And thanks Harry for pointing out the issue with the hood. The hood seem to fit fine during mock up, but apparently I did not allow enough clearance for paint around the mounting area of hood. If I keep opening and closing the hood it will work itself out eventually. Thanks John

Last ones, I promise

More pictures

Well I finally finished this one. I did change a couple of things since last update. Made some new rocker panels, modified the rear bumper, made some decals. Enjoy and as always your comments are welcomed.

Finished moved to under glass

I think I might know this one. pm sent

Hey John those intake hoses look very realistic .What do you use to make them, cant wait to see more of your work.

Ditto. Great work as usual.

Great looking build.

And one last thing what do you guys think about this decal. I wish I had some PE for the side badges but beggers cant be chosey.

A couple pictures of the interior and engine.

Well it's almost complete, still have to finish the back bumper and the rocker panels. Put some more wires to the engine and blah blah blah, you get the picture. It ended up sitting a little higher than I wanted due to the back window not being in place during the mock up stages. Oh well.

absolutely stunning build. Love everything about it. keep up the GREAT work.
