I'm on board and eagerly awaiting more progress my friend!!! Randy

Hi Eric, This is one thread that I check to see the progress when I get on this site. Your design skills are awesome and I love to watch you execute the build up of this car using the various technologies and materials. Randy

I like where you are going with this James !! Randy

This is really cool Bruce. The engine bay looks mighty fine and those interior skins are a great touch!!!! Randy

The work you put into that interior really paid off Joe !!! Randy

Great project JC !!! I'm with Tom, the extra details you are adding really make this special. Always a big fan of your work. Randy

Always look forward to your projects buddy!!!! Beautiful work Randy

Hello Richard, Love all the work you are putting into this one my friend The body came out great !!! Awesome looking wood. I like the slammed look. Randy

What a cool project Brad !! Your metal work is Awesome my friend.

Hey Tim, Got a chuckle when you posted the pic of the kit part, I don't remember that this started as a kit. Just a scratch built masterpiece Love it when you do a mockup. Randy

What Brad Said !!! Outstanding modeling Paul, can't wait to see the parts. Randy

Wish I could paint like that, beautiful car Geoff !! Randy

Still work to done on this first one then three more to go. The stacks are a Model Factory Hiro product from an old Daytona Cobra kit that I reamed out. Thanks for looking in! Randy

Hi Folks, To Lioyd, Elyashiv, Tom, Mike C. , Phil, Bruce, Jim and Steve a big thank you for taking the time to comment to you all !!! Richard, Thank you and you do realize that you can't rust the wood parts on the 'Woody" right JC, Thank you I received my first order From HRM and Harold's stuff is great!! Hi Tim, I feel the same about your's my friend! Thanks for that pick me up Pete Wish I could have been there. Ed, You will not be disappointed. Hey Joe, Appreciate it ! Brian, That is on the short list ! Chris, Time is ticking and Danno put up the first post already ! John, Weller 40 watt variable soldering iron, mostly 'Novak Silver Solder' and 'Tix' flux. Dave, Look forward to seeing you in April. Curt, Thank you for that and I always look forward to seeing your builds! See you at DSC. Art, Thank you buddy now get back to work ! Mike De, As a one time Triumph owner like you, I always wished I had Webers instead of the Strombergs on my GT6+ ! The ' Carb ' saga continues.... The HRM carbs that I ordered look awesome but I will use those on another project. I really want the Webers to be the focal point when the rear clip is lifted on this car. Kind of like this .... What follows is my attempt at a Weber IDA 48 carb. Nickel silver and brass sheet stock and tubing used on these. Reference pics, Forum member Bill E. (Ace-Garageguy) thoughtfully provided a measured drawing in another thread about these carbs, Thanks Bill ! More following........

Been waiting for this Art !!! Kinda like your jig Randy

Killer project Bruce ! The body work is top notch my friend Randy

Great to see you rolling along with another Cobra build JC!!!! The hood looks spot on and the dash detail is terrific ! Randy

A most impressive collection Bernard !!!!! Randy

That is an Awesome tiny little part Tim !!!! Going to have to steal that o-ring idea ! Randy

Love the 'flat red' Brad !!! Randy

Joe, Joe, Joe, You have to put down the eggnog buddy The Bat plate looks cool !!! Randy

Hi Folks, Hope everyone had some merry holidays!!! Hi Bernard, WOW, the Conti family has built some awesome Ferrari models !!! Thank you for the links. The only one of the three that I was aware of is Sir Wingrove. Thank you Mark Tim , Thank you my friend ! Finally getting around to posting an update Hi Shaun, Funny you should mention that car, I only have about a dozen plastic car kits in my stash and that is one of them!! Progress to report... A arms and shocks are next..... Reference pic.... Straightened some 14 gauge solid Nickel Silver wire and filed some flats on it for the A arms. Pieces and parts for one side. Using threaded rod and nuts from ' T2M' and working shocks from ' RB Motion' Also the rather crude beginnings of the spindles. Making up the lower A arm supporting structure.... I get a bit less than a 1/4 inch of travel... Thanks for looking in !! Randy

Excellent body work as always from your bench JC !!!!! Randy
