James2 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Stunning build Eric, the fit and finish is only out done by the detail. Nicely done...
Bumblebi Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Awesome build! I may have to try the BFM method on a build now...
djflyer Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Fantastic build! The workbench steps should be pinned for the innovative method used to make the frame and dash alone, not to mention all the other steps it took to create this masterpiece.
Burnout Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Outstanding work! Very original and inspiring. Really cool!
Impalow Posted December 2, 2015 Author Posted December 2, 2015 Thank you all for the kind words and compliments.... now i got to figure out how to top this one...
misterNNL Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 This has been one of the most inspirational and innovative builds to follow while under construction.There will surely be a lot of rods taking tips and ideas from this one.Thanks for taking all the extra time to take the photos and post the techniques you used to create it.
tbill Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 stunning build, every part is fantastic........looks incredible......
Taxdude Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Very innovated. You clearly don't live in the "box"
Lowlife ! ! Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Eric.... Er, cant think of anything else to say that hasn't been said already ! ! You know im a fan, cant wait till the next one, like you said try and top this............... Lowlife ! !
Spex84 Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Innovative and creative build (thanks for sharing all the steps) and a fantastic result. The subject is a bit crazy for my taste, but the execution is so awesome that I'm immediately drawn in. The stencil-cut frame grabbed me at first, but once you got to the scratchbuilt luggage-rack gas tank, my mind was properly blown. Oh, then the dashboard. And the foiled body...and the wood interior bracing... I'm almost sad to see this one finished, because I enjoyed watching the build process so much.Oh, and the other two are sweet builds too. All hits, nary a miss in the bunch!
Dave Van Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 I like your design and craftsmanship........but the craftsmanship blows me away!!!!!I like it even though it cost me money........I have to buy one of those cutters!!
Jeremy Jon Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Righteous build! Love the bare metal body look!
unclescott58 Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 Wow! Not my style in general. But, I like it. Very impressive build.
Dominik Posted December 3, 2015 Posted December 3, 2015 outstanding. i've just reread your wip, as i saw your pictures this morning. scratchbuilt as its finest. great craftsmanship! i am really impressed.
Custom Mike Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 Thank you all for the kind words and compliments.... now i got to figure out how to top this one... I have no doubt you'll find a way top top this Eric, you're no one-hit wonder with this kind of skill! I loved watching it come together, and still can't get past the steamer trunk/gas tank, that was a stroke of genius!
DeeCee Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 That is just so cool, what a wicked build, and your others look great too, nice work !!
Jantrix Posted December 4, 2015 Posted December 4, 2015 It's a terrific model. It's not often we see someone take a genre (rat rods in this instance) and turn it on it's ear. And give us something classy and unexpected. Fantastic work.
