You did an awesome job building the Freight Train. I remeber seeing the car back in the mid 60's when it traveled to the Midwest to race.

awesome build john.

[Terry Sumner]

Looks great..except for rear tires...at rest the wrinkle should extend to both sides of the tire. But if depicting the car under acceleration...well the wrinkles are backwards...like they're under acceleration in reverse.

[Hondo]

Definitely a rare one as a model.

Awesome as usual, John !! Nice work.

Actually, the wrinkles are backwards on one side and frontwards on the other! He's doing tight donuts!

Fantastic build of a true classic. Before NHRA homogenized fuel cars and regulated back yard engineering
