gasser59 Posted October 27, 2016 Posted October 27, 2016 (edited) Hot dang, that is really coming together nicely. Those elongated front fenders came out great. I was a bit worried they would look too tall but I should have known you be all over it. The black body with the red frame work and wood dash is such a great combination.

modelfink Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 Your work on this build is very inspiring. I'm currently working on a similar project, a 32 5 window gasser. It's cool to see your progress. love it!
Mooneyzs Posted October 28, 2016 Posted October 28, 2016 John... This is looking awesome!! Your work is Killer. Keep up the great work on this. Looks like you only have a few things left to do before it's done. The contrast between the Dash, the Roll Cage and the body just looks great!! Keep up the nice work on this one. I can't wait to see what you will start building after this one is done.

Mooneyzs Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 John... That is some mighty fine work you have done and the progress you have made is just awesome. I can see that you are just about to the end of the tunnel on this one and probably can call it done in just a few days if that. The details are really nice on the engine. Love your weathering on it. It looks so good with everything in place. The underside of the car looks great with your Weathering Magic you added to it. This has been a fun build to watch. Can't wait to see it done and then see what you start next!
Metaldrumm Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 After looking at all the pics ,u can just tell this is gonna be something special,great work buddy.
Davewilly Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 Great looking work as always John! Matches up very very well to the real one.
Nytrozilla Posted October 31, 2016 Posted October 31, 2016 That's the most realistic realism I've really ever seen. Really.
