John... Outstanding work on the interior. I can only imagine what its going to look like with your Alclad skills. Going to be Bright and Shiny!! You are just Killing this build. Nice work!!

[Art Laski]

Good stuff, man!

[Codi]

John, I just had to do a bing search to see the pics of the real thing.  You ARE killing the details of this.  I want to buy stock in the faux rivet decal company (Archer I think? ) as you're going to need sheets and sheets of them. I never realized how much detail there is in the real one.  This has to be one of the ambitious builds you've undertaken to date.  I especially like your eye for design details,  1 example being the seat support and it's shape/curvature that you picked up beautifully.  Such a build!   cheers, tim

You're builds are always inspirational, but just looking at all those holes makes my wrist hurt thinking about drilling them. Nice work

[cobraman]

I hereby tender my resignation to the modeling community.  

That is incredible work.  Such attention to detail.  And that natural metal finish ...

[curt raitz]

Definitely a model for all the "Rivet Counters" out there!!!

Looking Good Johnnie Boy!

W T H !!!!  Where have I been? Just getting caught up on this riveting build and I must say you're been a busy Johnny. When I saw the original car picture in the first post, I almost jumped out of my seat in anticipation and excitement. You certainly haven't left one detail out on this brother. Keep after it.

[Chariots of Fire]

That's pretty awesome work.  Not easy painting it with Alclad.  That stuff shows up every little flaw unless you do neat work like you have done.  Great job!

[Hotrod 97]

Incredible work! Just wondering - are you going to give it that “brushed” look, or keep it shiny?

It will be weathered after I apply the decals.....it won’t be shinny

thanks

Cool! Can’t wait to see it!

[Mooneyzs]

Johnny Boy... as usual you have crushed the Alclad work out of the park my friend. This thing is looking Mighty Fine.  I don't think there is a detail you have missed. Looking forward to your next epic update!!

[Foxer]

As with your others, I'm sitting silently with jaw in my lap.

[GLMFAA1]

All I can say is WOW! I'll save the rest for when it's done,

greg

[bill lanfear]

Excellent work!  You have exceptional skills!!

I have GOT to ask this question....is there anything you CAN'T do in modeling??? It seems there's nothing that's out of your reach John. Terrific modeling.

[John Teresi]

Hello......thank you all so very much for the kind comments ......I really do appreciate them........I weathered the body with a light wash to tone down the Alclad......I got the interior mocked-up nothing glued in place yet.......I made and detailed the interior and used some "Pro Tech" nut and bolt ends to dress it up a little .......I made the dual steering wheels and got those attached.......thanks for looking
