John Pol Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Hello.....a few photo`s of the body on the chassis mock-up.......thank`s for looking. Nice work so far John love your stuff what do you use for body filler? John Pol
John Goschke Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 Wow, Wow, Wow! I can't believe how nice this model is looking from where you started. Your bodywork looks flawless and that finish would sure reveal any fault. Amazing! To say I'm not a fan of this custom would be an understatement, but your model is incredible; looks better than the real car!
Nitro Neil Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 John, I have to agree with John G on this one - not a fan of the real car, but watching you work is a joy. I have a couple of cars on my "to do" list that I keep thinking will be "too hard", and then you pull this one out of your hat. It's an inspiration. Thanks,
Danno Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Oh, John! Just freakin' incredible! Every time I think you've hit the ceiling, you knock another one clear out of the ballpark. It's not even done yet and it's already just unfriggin'believable. Wow. I'm gonna start saving up for some new sunglasses so I can look at this one up close when you bring it to Desert Scale Classic! Holy moley! Did I say, GREAT JOB!!!?!!!! Edited January 7, 2011 by Danno
Jon Cole Posted January 7, 2011 Posted January 7, 2011 How did I miss this before? The amount of customizing is amazing!!! You continue to amaze!
LAone Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 JEZUZ! i cant seem to stop looking at this. there is something about it that makes me think, is he really human?? awesome work all around.
Chuck Most Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 John, you owe me a new keyboard... I just ruined mine drooling all over it!!!!
Modellpularn Posted January 8, 2011 Posted January 8, 2011 (edited) Impossible to find fault with this build.....very, very impressive. Great job....the body modifications look perfect. Could not have said it better, but I'll add some anyway..... Wow, awesome project, and you managed to pull it off, looks flawless!! Will you bring it to the NNL West? I have a feeling it will blow some minds.... I plan to be there, and hopefully bring something. Edited January 8, 2011 by Modellpularn
