Platerpants Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 metal trunk? i joked before this thing was gonna have a metal body
Chas SCR Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 Looks great Bill, can not wait to see this next year at KC show!
FASTBACK340 Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 HOLY *#@& !!!!! You ARE making body panels from metal!!!!!!!! I don't come around for a while and I see this. Wow.... as always. Do you realize you can post progress pictures of panel lines being re-scribed and we'd all love to see it? Do you realize how epic this build is becoming? I mean, you could probably sell the metal shavings from your lathe...
Mooneyzs Posted June 20, 2013 Posted June 20, 2013 Bill.... this is absolutely awesome Bud!!. I love the brass trunk you did. Your metal work is so nice. I sure have missed seeing updates on this and glad to see you are getting some bench time.
Cien1986 Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 You know.... this is the most amazing model kit that i have ever seen on this planet.... we should register it to one of the "Wonders"....
Custom Mike Posted June 21, 2013 Posted June 21, 2013 thanks so much guys, just a few pics of the boring body work Yeah, those suicide doors and brass trunk are super boring Bill, can't you do something exciting once in a while?
