shucky Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 That is outstanding! I love the quirky look! Excellent details throughout, super nice job.
mrknowetall Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 Excellent craftsmanship and build! It makes me smile, and that's what model car building is all about!
John Goschke Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 I love this thing! Beautifully executed. Surrealistic and realistic at the same time. Colors look very authentic for the late '50s/early '60s, and I like the fact that while it looks nearly new it's rusting out already. The boxy, appliance-like exterior play nicely against that simple, yet stylish dashboard.
charlie8575 Posted March 27, 2013 Posted March 27, 2013 I love watching the Finns make fun of the Russians. Not too far from where I live, in the Fitchburg/Ashby/Gardner area, used to be the largest settlement of Finns in the U.S., and where I went to college in Fitchburg, I made a lot of friends who are of Finnish descent. Especially listening to the older people take digs at the Russians and Swedes reminded me of the Armenians on my mother's side of the family needling the Turks. Very nice model, and great job assembling that. Kippis! Charlie Larkin
Grumpa Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 Eero, what a fantastic build! True craftsmanship! The car reminds me of the "cartoon cars" in the Michelin Tire ads over her in the states.

My grandparents were not fond of Russia. I wish I could read the comic this car is based on.
Tompidom Posted March 28, 2013 Posted March 28, 2013 This has to be the coolest car i've ever seen! Amazing
