That car is unbelievable :o :o :o

Makes me wonder why I bother trying as there's no way I could build one as good as that  :'(

Wow, the Oldbug detail shots just go on and on and really show what an AMAZING level of detail that car was built to. I aways thought, yeah Darrel's car is awesome, but has it got as much as the two big hitters built before it (randy's and rich's) had?  Wow it has - an amazing creation, I love how the humps in the lid retain the swage line and the brake hardlines are INSANE.

In saying that though, I think i'd still rather own the '50 and i'm a cal-look guy! Russell...hows about I just pay you a grand a year till I hit retirement? :)

tom.

P.S. Russell, is there any chance the '50 will make it to a U.K. show before its sold? I'd love to see that car in person before/if it goes abroad.

Take it to Nicks on a certain sunday, park it, leave the keys in it and walk away!!!!! I'm sure someone can hide it for ya! :-X :-\ :o

Really though, can't imagine going through all that, plus the boys too. Sorry to hear it. Good luck. Casey.

Just listed the car on e-Bay to see what happens.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=002&sspagename=STRK%3AMESE%3AIT&viewitem=&item=120232043137&rd=1

The reserve is pretty low considering what it cost to build, and how much is would cost to duplicate.

Thanks for the kind words gents ! ;)

Darrell

Even ignoring the exchange rate, that's far less than I would've thought it would be up for  :o
