I just found this thread and now that I'm all caught up with it... Holy Cow! [family friendly exclamation] I've heard about kits like this but I've never seen one built. It's absolutely astounding... the level of detail, the precision. Just about anyone who has built more than one model car has probably dreamed of building a kit like this one. You're doing amazing work with an amazing kit. Thanks for taking the time to share your progress with us. David G.

Sweet roadster! Love the chrome bomber seats. David G.

Beautiful paint and assembly! It reminds me of one of those Auto-Rama show cars from the Seventies. David G.

This looks like a fun build, you're off to a great start. David G.

Beautiful paint and decal work, looks flawless! Or as we used to say back in the day... "Bitchin' van Dude!" David G.

The rear clip and interior look great! It's a bummer about the respray. But at least you have experience with this issue and have a solid plan to address it. David G.

Nice paint and foil work. David G.

Beautiful paintwork, great color. Looks great so far! David G.

Fabulous color combination, excellent interior and a clean solid build, what's not to like? David G.

Beautiful work as always Bob. Everything looks just right on this one. David G.

It looks fantastic! It could qualify as Box Art in its own right. David G.

Hello Everybody! Back in the WIP thread on 9/28/2021 at 12:52 PM, doorsovdoon said: "wow, she shines! Reminds me of a cast metal trophy. That would look awesome on a wooden plinth." It turns out that I actually have a plinth, well something like a plinth anyway. It's really the lid from a cremation urn that I got from work because it was damaged during shipping. So by Gareth's @doorsovdoon suggestion, here are some shots of the "Trophy Edition" of the 1959 Chrysler Imperial. And of course, my traditional Display Case Shot. That about wraps this one up. Thanks to those who offered their support, suggestions, comments and thoughts. I do appreciate all the feedback. David G.

As usual Bob, a beautiful choice of colors. Excellent engine and chassis work too. David G.

Nice wheels and stance Bob. It just says "Zoom!" David G.

Excellent choice on the engine. The body mods and corrections you're making are mind blowing! Fantastic work on this so far. David G.

That's one sweet looking little truck! David G.

Thank you David. Thanks Steve. Yes, they are true works of art. Wow Gary, that is a lot of work! You could probably melt down one of these old land yachts and make it into five Toyotas! I'm glad you like mine though, thanks for saying so. I have a few more photos I'd like to post for this one. I'll probably get them up today or tomorrow. David G.

I'm a little late to the game on this one but I'm glad I found it. I really like the work you did on the interior, the door panels and rear bulkhead look great! The chassis is excellent, nicely built and detailed. The paintwork on the body is pretty cool too. This is one sweet little hotrod. David G.

I'm buckled in, fire it up! David G.

Thank you Carl, I always appreciate your comments. David G.

Your work on this is most impressive! David G.

Nicely Done! Good color combination. David G.

Beautiful paint and interior! Assembly work looks great too. David G.

Nice work on the seats! David G.

Nice weathering, very convincing. David G.
