Hello......thank you all so very much for the kind comments ......I really do appreciate them:)......I finished the base display for the "Iorn Lung"......I sent my buddy Art Laski a picture of the original hand painted pinstripped sign and asked him if he could shrink it down with his copier machine and so I could used it on the base......thanks Art........all I need to do is put a liscence plate on the "Iron Lung" and attach it to the base.......I will post finished pics when I get back from DSC 2016 next Sat. April 9th......thanks for looking.

      That's insane! Given the Dio maybe you ought to replace the coin slot with a button and make a little decal for the activator box that sez, "Cost Per Ride, Your Life". What a great base and Dio for that Car.

Wow ! Your car is fantastic and the base with the fence just put it way over the top. I sure wish I could make it to the show this year.  : (

I'm guessing the actual car has a old chassis from a 40 ford or something, Just a guess .. Because that front axle looks old!!!!!!!!

John... Dude this thing turned out Awesome. Love the weathering on the skeleton and I totally love his Chrome Dome helmet. This is one heck of a build. Took you only 7 weeks to build this beauty. As Randy mentioned you are one talented builder. Can't wat to see this in person in less than a week.
