Looking good, as usual, Jürgen!!

Where did the resin body come from?

Later,

Clicked on the link and it looks like the resin conversion is no longer available. If that's the case I have a SERIOUS problem. :o

hi guys !!!

thanks for your comments.

mike the constructor of the kit (www.scaleproduction.de) establishes the kit in the next time. ask him for the kit. if the demand is rising, perhaps it is faster then.

Ok Juergen you 've got my attention!!! Man this one is really taking some great shape. The interior is fantastic. Finally you've got some paint on this thing. The paint looks spot on perfect. Great attention to all the details. I'm gald the fitment is good. Nothing worse than everything coming together and it just doesn't fit right. Beautiful so far. Keep us posted. Oh yeah when you get done just mail this one to me and no one will get hurt. Just kidding. Great work as always.

if i could just get the wheels or a set in 1/24th like it, i could do all the body work myself. i was going to get one of the kits, and have a friend of mine copy some of the parts so that i could build a few of them. but might have to go back to the drawing board on this one. i emailed kevin over at strada to see if he can still get it. i know he doesnt have any in stock.

Holy ###### Juergen that came out absolutely beautiful. It couldn't have been done any better. Every detail looks spot on. Love the paint, the wheels, the engine. Everything just screams muscle and one bad--- ride. You know that I am a big mustang fan, so I think I'm a little bias about your build, but you always do the most excellent job on everyone of your builds. I have not built Eleanor yet, but that is on the big list of builds that I must do. when I get to that point i will be asking you a lot of questions about the transkit and other details about the build. Again thanks for always raising the bar for us modelers and making us be the best we can be. Your builds always inspire me and I thank you for that. Again great job on Eleanor. You have really done her justice my friend. Keep up the great work.

Great Job! She looks real mean. I'm a TV/Movie car nut and Eleanor is one of my favorites. Another thing that makes that movie so cool is that Nick Cage did most of the driving! He also took one of the cars home after filming.
