Been watching this one mostly in the background. Love what's happening with it.

Ever since I read the article on Juha Airio's Jetrolet Anti-Gravity car, I've been wanting to build one. Maybe, just maybe... someday I will.

Can't wait to see more progress on this one, Ira.

How about a 3 Day Finish on this one Dr.?

Working on the interior now.

Then final fitting of the bubble top to the interior & body.

A little more body work and the painting starts!

Trying to finish before 2/11/12 for NNL West!

I love this build. Inspires me to build a flying/retro future car myself, maybe a few of them.

Thanks Jeffery!

This reminds me so much of when my Great Great Grandmother would talk about "The Rocket Era" when things had fins/wings, and jet like turbines. Wonderful build and you have executed this projected perfectly! The colour is perfect! :)
