A few more photos .

With the reissue due out in a few months I decided it was time to restore one I've had rattling around in a box for years . It's completely box stock except for some plug wires and home made decals . Now I have a stock build to display next to the heavily modified reissue I have planned . This is what I started with . The body was cleaned , polished , and cleared . I detailed the engine . And printed some duplicates of the original decals .

The Good Stuff was Jim's company name .

His name is Jim Johnson and he stopped selling a couple of years ago . Last conversation I had with him he has no desire to start up again .

I'm very jealous , that's a great collection !

Received mine a couple of days ago . . . very nice !

NICE !!

Sweet !

Beautiful build and absolutely awesome detailing ! So many great details to marvel at but the one that struck me is the radiator , very realistic right down to the solder on the top tank !

Very very cool build Bernard , one of your best ! I enjoyed following the build too , I always learn a thing or two .

Excellent work and a very cool color ! Using parts from the Torino GT is definitely the way to build one of these .

You should be happy with it , it turned out great !

Wouldn't it be worth paying the $59.99 to access and copy all of your photos to your computer ? When you're done close the account .

Very nicely done , the colors look great ! Welcome back to the exciting world of model building , carpet monsters and all !

I went to the main site to order a T-Shirt and when I click on "add to cart" it sends me to my own PPal account instead of to your Paypal me link . What am I missing ?

Thanks very much Bernard ! The paint color is actually one reason it sat on my bench for more than a year .

Thanks guys ! It was a fun build !

Wow it looks great with the top you grafted to it , great job ! And gorgeous paint as always .

Excellent ! Don't see enough of these and yours is a great example with beautiful paint and lots of detailing . Would love to see more pics of the engine !

Beautifully done ! Great color and detailing , and the houndstooth interior is the icing on the cake !

Thanks ! The windows in my kit were molded in black plastic so I had no choice , and the flames are made from translucent modeling clay . For the smoke I tried a dozen or more different products until I settled on what you see here . . . still need a bit of practice .

Thanks much guys ! I never know how these kind of builds will be received when I post them , lots of people see them as toys not models .

Started this Polar lights kit more than a year ago but it got pushed aside . Last month I came up with an idea and started playing around with it again . These are really simple snap kits , but with a little bit of detailing they display nicely . Hope you like it !

Beautifully done Dave , nothing wrong with a clone that looks that good ! And your colors do look spot on !
