Hello Joe,

That is fantastic work.  Mean and beefy!  I really like the red truck too.  Outstanding workmanship and detail.  I especially appreciate the wire looms and spark plug wire routing.  On the surface, it may seem a small detail, but to me those little touches are what elevates a good model to a great model.  Ace work sir!  YesYes

Just keep picking away at it...

Thanks Steve, Mark and Bruce! I've been thinkin' about giving my "Street Demons" 41 Willys the same treatment. Maybe another Demon II project.......Whistling

Absolutely stunning finish Joe. You have torched it on all aspects of the build. From detail to paint job, you have certainly demonstrated experten skills. It truly is a beauty my friend and I greatly appreciate you sharing it with all of us. now, bring on the next epic project.

I vote for a '41 Willys W.I.P.! That would be about the only other car model I'd build. I could get some pointers and might even chase down the kit. Big talk here, I'm really way behind in several projects. OK, I'll at least start the chase for one!

PS--seeing a supercharged '41 Willys on the back wheels in the day still raises the hair on my neck! Great sound too!

I endorse this message!! 

That body style lends itself to tubs and flames, and with your skillset, I think you would smash it out of the park.

My2 cents

Just keep picking away at it...

I was just looking at this kit at the HS shop on my lunch break wondering about the possibilities. This one is as good as it gets for sure!! The black paint and flames look really good. Very clean work!

Thanks Jack. They are a fun kit to build. It almost puts itself together.

This is one of those builds where using a few words to denote a job well done seems petty.

You really did a great job on this one, Joe. Attention to detail squared.

I'm hoping one day to see this one in person, who knows? I have a hunch those dark grey flames are completely different in person.

Nice work, Joe.
