kobuzz Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Beautiful build. I have a question though. How do you display all of these builds? I can't imagine them just boxed away.
Greg Pugh Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 A beautiful piece of art like usual, John! Your work amazes me!!
rollover Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Is that "soot painting"? If it is I'm really dating myself!

Old Coyote Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 another simply amazing piece Mr. T ........... your work is astounding
Terry Sumner Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 John, You end your post with, "Thanks for looking." To which I say, "Thanks for building!" Your stuff continually amazes me!
Dragracer Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 One of Lil John's better-looking F/C's, beautiful build John!
John Teresi Posted March 6, 2011 Author Posted March 6, 2011 Thank you so much guy`s ......for the kind comments.......I feel rewarded every-time for the work I put into my builds......thank`s again.
bigmikevee Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Hey John, Very, very nice, you never disappoint!! I'm also curious about Kobuzz's question, where do you keep and display all your models, you must have a bunch by now, would love to see a couple shots of your display. And, as always John, thanks for posting, I always look forward to seeing what comes next!! Mike
Chuck Most Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Love that paint job, reminds me of one of those huge lollipops!
biscayne63 Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 What's up with the upside down valve covers? Beautiful model!
John Teresi Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) What's up with the upside down valve covers? Beautiful model! WOW!!!!!.......I guess .......I must be pretty stupid.......or you are really really smart?......or you are a member of "Straight line Modelers"?........anyway, it`s "Mind Over Matter"........I don`t mind and you don`t matter.

biscayne63 Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Hi John. If I don't matter, how about a build off? 60's - 70's dragster or F/C? Build the same car head to head. We could post in process pics here and have the guys on the forum pick their favorite.
