Pro Wrench Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Very nice work. Like I said before, the subject matter may not be that appealing to some but one cannot deny the skill and quality of the work to recreate it. Very impressive.

Hollywood Jim Posted March 24, 2013 Share Posted March 24, 2013 Beautiful job my friend !!! This car design is very interesting, over the top, overdone and creepy all at the same time. Now I know why you decided to build it in scale. It's a real attention getter !! . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisdonm Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I actually found the link to this amazing build on another site. I am interested in the spare tire cover. It looked like a regular tire for a long time, then all of a sudden it turned into a cover some how. Could you explain what you did? Now I'm going to look for your other builds. Do you have any links? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Schmidt Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Why no shots with the doors an truck fully closed ?? an why no front 3/4 shots of it finished ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Teresi Posted April 25, 2013 Author Share Posted April 25, 2013 Why no shots with the doors an truck fully closed ?? an why no front 3/4 shots of it finished ?? Trunk will never close......I have a keg in the back for display like the real 1:1 car.......when I took these photos the doors had fresh soft paint......I did not want to close them yet.......the edges of the doors have been rubbed out since then and they close.......if you want to see 3/4 shots of the finished build look in the "UnderGlass"section.
