Force Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Very nice, looks almost better than the real car.
gtx6970 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Ayone know if the actual still exists. It didnt fare so well on the circuit back then and was kind of short lived
Mooneyzs Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I believe it is the one in Garlits Museum that has beem reatored.
W-409 Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 Wow, incredible work in here, but that's what we expect from you. Very nice work on this one. The chassis looks super nice and your engine detail is fantastic as always. My favorite detail is that blower belt and that Cragar logo in it. It looks just right. I can't wait to see the finished pictures.

AZ Boy Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 Simply outstanding, John! It never mattered to me that the real car was never successful...it was still one of my favorite dragsters of all time and you've done it justice with this fantastic build. Congrats! BTW Chris, you have some serious skills when it comes to Photoshop.

Nytrozilla Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 My Brothers!!!!! Chris, that is one sweet cover. John, I will see this in person at the DSC. I miss you both.
Mooneyzs Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 Aaron... I am not sure about that I am pretty much a hack at Photoshop. Too me forever to do that...lolJoe... Looking forward to seeing you at the DSC.

cobraman Posted January 31, 2016 Posted January 31, 2016 The model is beautiful and the made up magazine cover is too cool !
sflam123 Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Beautiful work sir! Your fabrications skills are out of this world. Amazing!!
Codi Posted February 1, 2016 Posted February 1, 2016 Beautiful build John. You've convinced me to explore HOK paints for the Henry build. I find interesting your use of Tamiya acrylics on your builds too. When the time gets closer, I'd like to pick your brains for tips or insights you'd be willing to share. Stunning !!! Cheers, Tim
