noname Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 That is a cool mostly period correct car. And it is nice to see someone putting this much detail into an older style Gasser. This guy is very lucky. Not only is he getting a replica of his car but a super detailed one at that.

Art Laski Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Nice, John! Your application of those parts you got from laskiscale.com looks fantastic! Â Looks like you're almost ready for some primer and color! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 John... Awesome Work on this update. That Engine is going to be killer when you add your detailing Magic to it. I have to agree with Art here. You are so close to having this thing in primer and paint. I can't wait to see it in its Glory all painted up. It is one totally cool build. Nice work on everything so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
