alan barton Posted January 11 Posted January 11 Gee that's nice! I might have to steal the grille bar idea for a custom Willys convertible that has been stalled for decades - that is exactly the sort of highlight it needs! Cheers Alan

The interior is really clean looking, and the color goes perfectly with the body color. Thanks David! The red goes with the lettering in the Gilmore livery... but makes for a darker interior color. I went against my "rule" to always use light color for the interior of a closed car, because otherwise, you need a flashlight to fully appreciate the details. Oh well... CT

happy grumpy Posted January 13 Posted January 13 I'm a big fan of your creations, this one is no exception. Awesome as always. Bonne année mon ami.

AmericanMuscleFan Posted January 15 Posted January 15 The proof has been made once again, good leftovers make good dishes especially when the cook is talented! You can't make an omelette without breaking eggs, but when you put the shells back together you certainly get something different and sometimes, as is the case here, the exercise is successful! Oddly enough, even the color supports my thoughts. 😁 Claude strikes again as many others have said or thought! Bravo encore une fois mon ami! 👍
XYHARRY Posted January 15 Posted January 15 Another clever creation there Claude. Your mix of colours are spot on for this build and that engine compartment is cool. Really well done. Cheers, David. 😎👍
Zippi Posted January 15 Posted January 15 I just like everything about this build Claude. That red interior looks Super kewl and really blends with the body color. Great looking mods to the ole Gilmore Petrol Willy's. Very nice build.

Ace-Garageguy Posted January 17 Posted January 17 Lots of high-quality craftsmanship on this one, as always.
