I really like them all but the fury hit my heart.

Thank you Jay

Monogram, revell, tamiya, hiro, agora and DeAgostini.

Some of you guys will want to model this . It lifts the car in the pits.

I’ll ask Bobby when he comes in to find out what that’s about.

Another one. Time frame 2 days. Repaired . Apron aluminum welded in. Right front supports aluminum welded in fender fitted then painted then installed. Hood supports aluminum welded in. Hood fitted , painted then installed. Will be ready for time trials Saturday. Crazy week. Some additional pics for you guys building this.

My collection of 1/8. I have the Gullwing in wip. The 250 is also a wip.

I have the agora 250 GTO.

Another one.

Oh my god….. call OSHA

Beautiful just beautiful. I really love the shape of this car. So much that I had to get the 1/8 scale version of this car. IMHO the 250 GTO and the P4 are my favorites. Great job on this build.

I’ll try to get test track pics

I wish I could have shot pics of her. But just right after she was painted, she was loaded up and gone before I even got to work. 5;30 am they were loading and going to test her. They worked all night to put her together.

Yeah, it’s kind of crazy, especially for an old guy to be around. People moving around so fast. Keeps you young that’s for sure.

My friends want me to retire, but I’m still in great health, if I do retire what will I do, work as a Walmart greeter? Nothing wrong with that but going out working for team Ferrari is a really cool finish.

Oh yes, very tight. They needed both cars in 3 weeks. Somehow we fixed them, put engines and electronics track tested them in that time. Not easy by any means. So my modeling time is nonexistent for right now.

Received this today from NART. Officially part of the race program.

I’m surprised that there is no follow-up after the build. My ship and tank models saw firecrackers and m-80’s boy I’m glad they did not see that. None of us would be alive.

Media blasted oil pan , intake, and timing cover, mocking up the engine.,drilled holes. Still need drill more. There are clearance problems for the hood( bonnet) to fit at the end of the build. So I’m modifying the carbs,stacks, turkey pan and motor mounts to give me around 3 mm of clearance. To try to go back and fix this after you have built it is just about impossible to do without redoing everything. The color is always different with each build out there. I’m trying to make it as real as possible. If you look at the actual picture of number 11 cobra, it has red plug wires, grey valve covers and a white turkey pan. This is right before the 1965 Daytona 24 hour race. The battery is not a autolite battery. I need my buddy Marks cobra Daytona book to get the full history.

Beautiful

Cool very cool!

To me, a restore is harder than building from a fresh start. Great job on the build and great job on the restoration.

Hello, here is the start of my repairs. Metal finishing aluminum. Was side swiped. Door next..

Revell should hire you to do some models like this for advertising. Before and after. Great job and great idea
