That's great! And the lift works too!

What scale is it?
its 1/18th scale .
has a lot of photo etched parts ,first time I ever did the etching thing.
go to my photo album I just up loaded a bunch of Pix.
Wow!
I half expect to see Dick Dastardly in it! :)
Beautiful scratch-build! :thumbsup:

It's absolutely crazy...i love it.

Beautiful piece o' work there sir, very VERY impressive !
That is FANTASTIC...the original is in the automobile museum in Los Angeles...I'd love to see a kit, or a die-cast of that baby...Professor Fate would be proud...
STUNNING!

My all time favorite car from my all time favorite movie.

Great job!

No I kind of eye balled the whole thing from photos I collected over the years.
Picky, picky, picky . . .

Looks absolutely amazing! But, strictly speaking . . . is it science fiction?
I think it falls comfortably within the category of Victorian sci-fi.

In any case, cool build.

Now do Prof. Fate's sub!
Looks nice! Especially for something that was "just eyeballed". :thumbsup:

Close enough for me.

The Great Race was very loosely based on an actual auto race that took place in 1908. Queen Victoria reigned from 1837 until her death in 1901, whereupon Edward VII assumed the throne. So technically it's Edwardian sci-fi.
