Looks REAL! Harry could have fooled me with this one in his real or model thread. All the detail is out of this world. The paint looks like the real deal, you really brought this one to life, nice job!

Like others here, I thought, "Nice hot rod, but where's the model?" That is unbelievably fabulous! Congratulations!

[Lunajammer]

I can never understand how your textures, patinas and fittings can be so true to life that scale cannot be determined. A masterful piece of the highest caliber.

Hey Harry I am voting real on this one. Details are outstanding on this build. Johns builds always makes me want to give up on model building. But not yet....

[DeeCee]

I was , like others, waiting for the model of what you were building, OUTSTANDING built, so life like, I still can not convince myself it is a model.

[Hard_2_Handle_454]

Wow!

[Metalmad]

I had the pleasure to see this build up close at my first NNL West in Santa Clara and I have to say this build is amazing ! Awesome building as always John keep them coming !

[Danno]

I, too, have had the opportunity of seeing this creation in person . . . and the privilege of being able to really scrutinize it up close. It is beyond belief! So spectacular it defies adjectives.

Very Impressive John !

[MikeBoyle]

Thanks for sharing. That is a work of art.

[JTalmage]

Wait... its not real? holy BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH...

[peekay]

This thing looks totally real from all angles and no matter how close the camera gets. Truly amazing work!

[S. Svendsen]

That's awesome.

[Dragline]

This is quite an accomplishment John. The realism is second to none. It could pass for real any day of the week. Reality striven for, then attained.

Impressive.
