geetee66 Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Incredible detail! At first I thought I was looking at a 1:1 build and you had got hold of a massive coin! But seriously, I'm astounded by the realism, especially as it looks more like 1/8 scale. Thanks for describing so much of the details, it really helps the rest of us improve our skills.
TFchronos Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Amazing detail the engine is jaw dropping. Kool video too, love the sound of them super chargers.
Agent G Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 I want to know where you got the giant quarter. Superb work John. G
