My friend Jim lives near Detroit and works for Ford. He is a skiiled craftsman and model maker. Here is his scratchbuilt 1/6 scale model of his own WC26. Impressive!...John

Very impressive. At first glance I thought it was the real thing. Your friend has talent.

He doesn't do airplanes. I think this was probably a one time project that he just wanted to do of his own vehicle.
