What scale is that, 1/2? Holy crap!!!

That is simply amazing John! ;D ;D ;D

Shame you couldn't get a better finish on it though (said tongue in cheek!)

You truly are the master!

John, that is a great build. Super detailing. I've not seen this version before. What's the story on this one. When did he run it, etc.? ;D

[francis]

this a supered build john just terrific detail
just one question what tape do you use for the roll bar padding
thanks for sharing the pics

[John Teresi]

This car was ran one time at Lions drag strip......it was to be the the Don Prudhomme "Care Free" hot wheels f/c......they did not have enough time to paint it....... so it was only a gell coat body with decal sponsors on it......I went the extra step and put a nice black shinny paint job on it......thank`s for asking.

Joe D.......the tape I use for the roll bar is from a computer store.......they use it for the computer boards.......really thin and has a texture to it......I also use it to mask off paint jobs.......sticks and curves good to the body....thank`s John

Is that a urethane clear on the body? Slick as glass...
