cobraman Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 A work of art to be sure. Do you keep your builds ? I think I remember that you built the semi rig for your father. This Willy's is one of my favorites that you did. Of coarse I like them all but this one just strikes a cord in me. if I had the money I would make you an offer you couldn't refuse. : ) So........... whats next ? I also can hardly believe you can buld a model of this quality in so short of time. i can't even build a glue bomb in that time. My hat is off to you sir.

Davewilly Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Amazing John. Love the finish Looks just like the real one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alyn Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Another beauty from the Teresi model factory. The look of polished and dull aluminum could not have turned out better. Your mastery of Alclad shines through inside and out. Another eye catcher for sure. Is it safe to look at this car in full sunlight without eye protection ?

Grumpa Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 This is awesome John! Truly incredible work! The paint is beyond belief! I wish that Alclad would develop a "rattle-can" for this paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnout Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Another outstanding model John! That is really beautiful. I too love the interior colors and the subtle contrast they add. When you use Alclad Chrome do you first use Alclads' black or someother form of gloss black? Thanks, KB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
