The most stunning thing, Alex, is to see an already superb modeller improove his skills job after job, trying new solutions and opening new ways.

Shxt I have to bump again... Killer... True killer... Alex can I show this to my girlfriend and tell her I made that? If so I'm sure she'll marry me immediately.

Great looking build, Alex. Appears you're almost done. One question - did these Ferraris originally have Fram oil filters? Just curious.

As far as I know GTO's had FRAMs on them... at least they have them on many period pictures...
Tang, sure, go ahead and....get married! :-)

Ok, a bit of an update - finished engine bay and interior - chassis is now ready to be installed into the body....

It looks as 1/1 as ever in most pics

The detail on the coil for example looks amazing - any chance of a closer photo?

Hello Alex,
Nice dashboard!
I see you made the same as I for the dials, nice.
Terrific finish on the engine compartment, also!

Re: Making of Le Mans Thoroughbred - '64 Ferrari 250 GTO

Such an inspiring work and it makes me feel very uncomfortable!

It makes me feel uncomfortable because the build is just way too good and I am not taking it well! "How is this possible!@#!@#??"

Great job!

No comments... Hi Alex some of the previous pics don't work, I wonder is it just me or they don't work for you either?
