Chuck Most Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Love the reworked Renault Vivastella body- I have one of those kits I need to do something with, now that I think of it...
bryan_m Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 yea, i agree, the brake pedal is just nuts! very cool john....... cheers bryan
vintagedragfan Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 sweet John! that dash is insane! looking awesome as usual brother
Mooneyzs Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 John... you are making some killer progress. I am digging that brake pedal. Is that a motorcycle chain? I am also digging the airbags you have put on it. I already can't wait until your next update. Keep up the great work Brother!
fractalign Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 This looks very interesting ! Using the Renault kit for the basis of the Nash is a very interesting idea. i have the same kit and i would never have thought of that ! Can't wait to see this one finished.
John Teresi Posted May 17, 2013 Author Posted May 17, 2013 Hello......thank you all for the kind comments........I really do appreciate them ........I did more work in the trunk area.......made a compressor for the air bags........made some link brackets and got a air tank mocked-up.......everything is rough and in the mock-up stages......I will make it look pretty latter .........I will work on the engine motor mounts tonight........thanks for looking.
Tumbler75 Posted May 17, 2013 Posted May 17, 2013 Stunning work as usual John! This is going to rank up there with your other amazing builds you have built. Can't wait to see more progress on this build. The attention to the detail is amazing! Keep at it.
Mooneyzs Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 John.... killer work my big brother. I am going to have to borrow your idea of the compressor and tank for a 49 merc project I want to do. Tis build is just awesome.
John Teresi Posted May 18, 2013 Author Posted May 18, 2013 Hello......thank you all very much for the kind comments.......I detailed the fire wall a little more and made some motor mounts........got the motor mocked-up........and made some headlight brackets and got the headlights mocked-up........I will do some more work on the front end tomorrow......thanks for looking.
James2 Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 I'll bet those engine mounts where fun to make and get even! Are the air bags rubber O rings, John? Looking good.
Ace-Garageguy Posted May 18, 2013 Posted May 18, 2013 Lotsa cool work on this...a real pleasure to watch it take shape.
Jimmy Wilson Posted May 19, 2013 Posted May 19, 2013 John, I've always admired your talents and enjoyed your posts at another board I am on. Your posts seemed to slow down as the site's main interest is show rods. It's amazing the things you create, but mind blowing is the speed at which you build. I'm curious do you ever slow down ? You are truly an inspiration to not only me, but many others here as seen by the accolades of your friends. Thanks for your time, and sharing your great models ! Jimmy
