Thanks! I'm glad you think so! That is totally my intention with this build. The 1:1 car really is an icon in drag racing history. It has a very distinct vibe; particularly wild for it's time. And when I learned about it I thought: why not try and build a shoebox ford version? 🙂 I'm actually working on a silly/fun, fictional backstory about it......stay tuned!

I love this kind of project. Most of what I build has something inspired by another race car, or something I've seen on another race car. I also enjoy the challenge, and research to be as certain as I can that graphics, contingency decals, and equipment, etc. are correct for the era I'm modeling. Gotta' have a back story!🙂 Nice work!
