Such a cool little build. For those that didn't follow along in it's construction it would be easy to miss the amount of scratchbuilding you had to do to bring this build into reality.
I especially like the heat wrap detail on the exhaust. Overall, very well done Travis

That turned out excellent! The simplicity of these vehicles makes them so interesting in my opinion. Despite that they're not so simple to build as models (probably not in 1:1 scale either) as we see here. You did an excellent job creating this racer, and as Craig said above, the amount of kitbashing and scratchbuilding would be hard to notice if we didn't have the build thread. Excellent work, thanks for sharing!

This model is a little jewel. Love the proportions and silver paintjob...it reminds me of the old Auto Union cars. Thanks for sharing all the scratchbuilding work required to make this model come to life! Definitely a unique and cool project. Are you going to build another? Or a trailer? Lots of possibilities come to mind...

I absolutely love this! You nailed the look from every angle. As was said above, it took a lot of work to create such a simple looking car. Very clever kit bashing and scratch building, especially the grill and header!
