 :)  Wow, Slim.  That is really nice.  I don't think I ever saw that one. Looks like a sure winner to me.

Nice!  I remember this one very well, along with the #007 '40 Ford sedan (pssst.... Slim... maybe post that one up as well?).

Great stuff!

Got to agree with the consensus on this build, really sweet.  Looks like it has been raced at least a couple times.  Overall a beauty.
