Nice job! The weathering on the frame makes it look like a Garlis car! :D

How were the decals to apply? I have that kit and would like to build it someday.

That frame HAS to be real! The "painting" of this piece is flawless in execution. ... not to mention the headers... etc. etc etc.

GREGG, Johns posting pics of real cars again!!! Wow John, talk about perfect execution, you build with the precision of a machine. Great job man!

Cracking model well done

I built a version of this some years ago, It was a straight from the box. my modeling skills wasnt the best back then and i recently put it in the "to re-do" pile and have since striped most of the paint.

Hey John If I didnt know this was a replica i'd be asking you if you need a driver for that sled. Nice work once again my friend!
