Did you reprint the wheels with a different material - or did you change the design ?  And are you using Mr Bill’s tires - or what ???  Very nice   -  btw ...

Experimenting with a different material. I will be using the last of my stock of resin cast tires on this model. However, I designed and and printed Pirelli Stelvios for the Osca (see in "under glass") and am working on Pirelli Cinturatos for future projects.

Cool

Pico, you are making us all feel real thrills when seeing your magnificent Pegaso Thrill going to the Great Apotheosis... don't stop until we can see and Enjoy it at last with you, please!

Please...

Chrome decals.

Molotow on the wire wheels. The monster knock off has the black Pegaso decal.

Nearing the end.

Pico, I'm amazed at how quickly you've built this. Impressive!

[Pico]

It's time to slap this job together.

Hi, Pico! great look, although light reflections are a little tricky... seats do have the correct shape, don't they? and windows, plain clear sheet or vacuform?

I can't wait until it has the wheels!

Rear window was vacformed, others are sheet. Pleats run across the seat in the car today, uncertain about 1953. Exhaust pipe install.

Finished.

Nice!

that is one heck of an undertaking and you nailed it?

[doorsovdoon]

All that work certainly paid off! Looks amazing, what a beautiful car!

[PatW]

Well that is superb! What a task to take on and succeed!

[absmiami]

White walls really make the look don’t they ?

have you seen the new Delage ??

[Draggon]

Wow! Beautiful work on this one ?

Thanks to everyone for the compliments. This has been a challenging, but fulfilling project, that I learned a lot on. I hope some of that learning has been picked up by many of you guys. Andy: just looked up the new Delage, didn't know anything about it. All of those hypercars are trying to out scoop, swoop and crease all the others. Maybe not a good idea. I would like to see a return to the aesthetics of the 50's.

Great looking one of a kind custom.

[Bucky]

Amazing build! A real "TOP SHELF" model!

[absmiami]

The delage is kinda out there. But I’m really digging the Murray T50.  Love that Cosworth V12... since the delage project is bank-rolled by a Miami guy. I’m thinking that the Delage mite be shown at Amelia ... that would be cool ...

The T50 is more my idea what a modern supercar should be. 

[absmiami]

The delage was designed by someone who has spent too much time on a play station ... [oldguyrant]

Well, I did not expect less than what you show us at last!  what a great work-of-art!... why don't you try some photosof the car on some P100 grain metal sanding paper ( may be a little lightened), it would look just like the real car... or over some green flocking paper, like the Peeble Beach green lawn...

Thank you very much for your new build

Now that just looks all kinds of good! Now i want to drive the 1:1
