Hello......I have been away from the bench for a few months......I just needed a break from modeling......but, I`m very happy to say that I am back......and I wanted to build something for myself......It is Carl Casper`s : Phonebooth........I still have the original kit un-built in 1/25 scale but, it is in storage somewhere........and I built the kit as a kid but,it is long gone now......Carl Casper buit some pretty cool 1:1 Custom`s back in the day.........so I decided to build a 1/16 scale version of the Phonebooth......so that I could really detail it out.......some of the build will be scratch built and some modifications on my donor kit.......I am starting with a 1/16 Minicraft 31 ford ........the 1:1 Phonebooth is a 1925 T` but, I could not find one in 1/16 scale so I will use the 31 and modify the fenders and scratch build the booth.......on the 1/25 scale box art it says that it ran a 426 Hemi.......but,with the distributor in the back it had to have been a early 392 Hemi.......My good friend Chris Sobak AKA "Moneys" suggested that maybe it was bored out to a 426?......anyway I bought a 1/16 392 Fuel injected Hemi and Trans from Shapeways 3D printed that I will use .......I also got some resin Crager SS deep dish wheels for the back and street Cragers for the front.........It wont be an exact replica but,it will be close enough for the girls I go with......anyway I will start this today.....I think I will have fun building this......thanks for looking. you can go here to see finished pictures in the "Under Glass" section......thanks

Mark.......NO,you suffer from screwing people over with your lack of honesty......I don`t understand why you like to take peoples money for your product and never ship the product out.......your a CROOKED CROOK.......and you will never get my buisiness and I`m sure you will never get Chris and Tim`s either.......you are a disgrace to the modeling Industry........I hope you can make things good between Chris and Tim.......good luck in the future your going to need it!!!!!!

Pretty much done with resin.
John Teresi replied to cobraman's topic in Car Aftermarket / Resin / 3D Printed
Chris.....sorry to hear about this nasty business deal that MARK JOHNSON did to you......I would be really pissed off.....I hear he did the same thing to Tim AKA "CODI"......doesn`t Mark know that he has screwed over 2 of the best builders in the country?.......I hope this gets out to the people that are thinking of buying a Mark Johnson resin engine......I know I never will......what a joke of a Human being.......it`s a shame that crooked people like this can sleep at night knowing how they can get away with BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH like this.......BEWARE don`t buy from MARK JOHNSON he is a crook. -
Tim......great work!!!!!

TIm "AKA " Codi"..........sorry to hear about your resin engine from Mark Johnson......that sucks!!!!!......my good friend "Mooneys" AKA Chris Sobak.....has been waiting for his resin engine from Mark Johnson for 3 years now.......and he is still waiting.......Chris is such a super nice guy that he won`t speak up for it.......I was going to order a resin engine from Johnson about 6 months ago and I decided to go with a Shapeways 3D printed engine instead.......I loved it.......I am starting a new project and I need a 392 Hemi that Mark Johnson sells.......but,now that I here what he did to you and has done to Chris......I will just order it from Shapeways 3D printed.......that`s to bad that Johnson has insulted you and Chris........two of the best model builders in the industry.......thanks again for the heads up......he won`t ever get my business. all my best,John -
