Welcome back to the hobby Conrad. I can’t build that well after a 45 DAY break! You haven’t lost a step.- Mark

Claude I love the roll in in the middle of the trunk. At least that is what we called it when we built one on my friend’s skateboard half pipe in the 80s. Another hit from the Thibodeau table of mad creations!- Mark

Wow Steve! Beautifully executed all around. Lots of work there. If your birth year is by chance 1969 that would be a great entry for this forum’s Cannonball 2022 challenge.-Mark

Nice to see one of Roth’s lesser known creations. You killed that paint!- Mark

I love it!- Mark

Brad that Courier/Trans Am is awesome! Also I love the 56.- Mark

Wicked Paul! Style points for the 1/20th F1 slicks, I love those on a 25th and 24th scale car.- Mark

Claude you are dangerous! I mean that in a good way. I love your ideas and builds.- Mark

That is super bad!- Mark

My goodness that is stunning! Amazing work.- Mark

Wicked cool Tim. You may have spent a lot on the kit but the outcome should soften the blow to your wallet! You should be proud man.- Mark

You know I love it Randy! See my personal car in my Avatar.- Mark

I am working on this one now. I built the Alitalia issue when I lived in Germany at 15 years old. The decals punished me! I lost that model somewhere along the way and always wanted to replace it. Though my skills are nominally better than in my teens I still was intimidated by the decals should I have gotten an old Alitalia issue. To say nothing of the fact that those decals would be 35 years old if I got a replacement kit! I would’ve probably had to re-print them and still have the nightmare of applying them. So when I saw this kit I said Aha! That’s the one I will build and 2 years after mom gave it to me for Xmas I have started it.- Mark

Rodrigo this is superb!- Mark

Wow those are beautiful Phil!- Mark

I was wondering the same. Tread on the tires makes me think 1:12th. In either case magnificent build Dale!- Mark

Mean looking kitty! Great color choice.- Mark

Really clean build Thomas! I love it- Mark

Les, thank you for the info. I’m sorry someone ripped him off. Not cool. Happy modeling my friend.- Mark

Superb craftsmanship Jason. Keep her going brother! -Mark

Yes Claude it was Terry Ross who built the 52, yellow with convex shaped wheels iirc. He also built a white 41 Willys Sedan phantom and a wild Pro Mod 54 Chevy sedan delivery called Crown Jewel Hauler or something like that. If you google “Terry Ross speed still” there is a video featuring, I believe, the very guy of which we speak. I have one of the video guy’s sculptures called Big Dude Biker. This photo I found online was easier than digging mine out of my mom’s basement! Most of my models and such have been boxed up since my divorce and when I get my own place they will ride the shelves again! Anyhow everyone else’s comments have covered all my opinions of your project but I will add that it drops my jaw. I love what I call a “sick” build and yours is as sick as it gets. I love all your builds. Keep warm in the Great White North brother. -Mark

I’ll bet it was much prettier and faster than mine! I would like to see that one....my friend may have that issue as he has a ton of Super Chevys from the 90s.

Thank you Oliver. I love your builds too! I used to live a few hours south of you in Boblingen from 1985-1987. I miss Germany and hope to visit there again someday.-Mark

I like it brother! Looks sinister and clean

Thank you all so much for the kind comments.
