SPA Modeler

Stuart, Duke, Mike....

I really appreciate your comments, especially me being the new guy here and us having just 'met' here online. Thanks so much for your encouragement and time! There is some major talent here and I'm sure enjoying getting to know (and learn from) you all.

Johnny, always good to hear from you. Thanks! (I'm heading down your way later today for a quick few days in Clearwater) I'm a bit upset that I am missing Modelpalozza by such a short time. I'd really like to meet you and the rest of the FL crew.

It's alway a joy to see a Formula One car model getting build. Of course you can build them curb side style, but in my eyes adding cables and plumbing makes the difference. From the outside so smooth and streamlined but from the inside a huge engineer's mess.

Amazing build you’ve got going on, Greg

Ha! I like that! Thanks for your encouragement!

Tom, good to hear from you. Thank you for your kind works.

I am finally done with the rear end assy. Now lets see if I can build an F1 body and make the innards fit.





This is my first car engine detailing attempt. Special thanks to Mustang Joe for nudging me along to try it over the years. I might mess up the rest of this thing, but at least I detailed my first engine and got this far.

If anyone thinks the braided line and fittings are out of scale, they probably are. I didn't really notice until I was far enough along not to want to start over!

Really. Would have been great to sit for lunch and talk shop. Last year I met with Bobby(Eagle) and Ernie. Had a fun day

Wow Greg! That is so well done that it looks totally real! I almost expect it to start up and roar!

Bring on the rest!

Greg, that is excellent work on all the wiring and plumbing! A pain to do, but that makes things look so much better!

Man, that does look real Greg!

Ford..FirstOnRaceDay!

That is super work!

Dammit man!!! That looks great Greg!! Love all the detail that you're putting into this car. That's the one thing about these F1 series rides.....they are packed with details and alot of it gets to be shown off.
