Looks great. I am working on a 1:1 scale 1963 Studebaker Hawk Gran Turismo at the shop right now. Great looking (and driving) cars.

Don't know just how cool it is but I've always liked this one. I built it quite a while ago before the Cady decals came out. It's hand lettered and sitting in front of my newest "shop". Hope ya'll like it.

10-4 on the Sheriff Andy deal. Poor ol' Barney would need some of Otis' "nerve tonic" to drive this one. LOL   

 The Wood Brothers always had some pretty race cars and when the stock cars made the trip out west for the Riverside 500 starting in '63 they added a pretty fair ol' country driver to the team. Dan Gurney had a little success with them driving their cars. He won five of the first six 500. One looked a lot like my build of his '65 race winner. 

 I took a pic a friend had shot of Dan's '68 race winning Torino, airbrushed out the car and used the Riverside Raceway backdrop to showcase my build of his '65 race winner. With me you NEVER know if it's real or if it's Memorex. LOL

Great car Philo426! I love how clean it looks (unlike some of the ones I've seen in full size).

Nice job on the Subaru Rally car. I have that one on the shelf and I hope mine turns out as nice as yours did. Have you built any of the other rally cars? If so please post them also.

Ken-very nice work.  Great attention to detail.

Question-the Russ Davis Thunderbolt-which kit is that and are the decals aftermarket?  And how about a pic of the engine?

Thanks

Bob, thanks for the nice comments. This was the Revell Thunderbolt kit with the kit's decals. I think it was the original issue.

Here's a shot of the engine:
