    Now that is one hell of a craftsman. That is some real serious talant that he has.

    There are not many people in this world that can turn out work like that.

    Okay boys and girls!!!



    Here's the latest since last night. Jimmy has been working feverishly this week. He has gotten the frame cleared and started putting it back together. He said he wasn't really finished grinding but he had to move on to make the nats. He also has put most of the body panels back on and is looking very good. This week he hopes to get the motor in and maybe most of the frame together. The way this guy works I'm sure he will get alot done. Here's some pics for this weeks progress. Man this is some kind of eye candy. Enjoy!!!

    This is nice. After reading a bunch of "drama posts" I was just thinking why do I even bother here anymore. Then this just reconfirms the beauty of the site.
     
  15. Wow! ... How did I miss this thread?

    193257 ... thanks for sharing your friend Jimmy's talents ... weez's "Emerald Tide" has always been one of my favorites ... it's great to see it come to life!

    I don't get it. So he decides there is not enough time to finish that project, and instead he's able to knock out this scratch built aluminum body and incredibly detailed build in less time?

    Makes me wonder how amazing that other build must be if this took less time than that one would.

    Killer craftsmanship anyway you look at it.
