Great work, John. I love just about everything you have done with this car (and what I am not sure about is just a matter of taste). I may have to pirate a couple of your ideas!

it reminds me of one of Ford's stainless steel cars that they made for Allegheny Steel to demonstrate the versatility of the material. That body looks like it's the best vacuum-plating job I've ever seen.

Very nice work, John.

John....another awesome build man!!! I'm mixed on the "burnt" look on the front, but overall it's beautiful. I bet it looks great next to your Thunderflight.... :D

Were do you get the engine wires and hoses and clamps and all that. I would really like to build a nice model like that but don't know where to buy the detailing parts.

On page 1, he said he got them from Pro Tech...

(Click on Model Car Parts Catalog, then click on the parts numbers to see pictures of the parts)

Of course, there are many other sources.

Old Guy Stuff: Check out John's Merc build in Under Glass. Remember I left a glass on table. Better get it before I hear about it. Go downstairs. Why did I come downstairs? Glasses !! I'm looking for my glasses. Well, they're not down here. Back upstairs I go. Look at computer monitor. Hey, there's John's Merc. How cool is that? Oh yeah, I need a glass of root beer. Back downstairs. As I head for the kitchen I think, "What am I gonna tell John he hasn't heard over and over?" Got root beer, back upstairs. Sit down, crack knuckles and prepare to type. Phone rings........

Four days later, I'm thinking to myself, "Why hasn't Teresi started another build?" Check Under Glass. Yup, it's done. Can't remember what my comment was. Search both pages; no comment from Batzilla.

You'll all be there some day........

BTW, nice build John. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see your next project. Where's my glasses...........
