    This is one of my favourites as well. I'll do a search and see if I can find some more pics. This car, together with your (Thinkfink) car, is absolutely an inspiration for my build.

    Thanks a lot Eric, and i can't wait to see any next shot of your car. Thanks again for sharing all the progress. This one will be a KILLER when done - if it customs are ever done :).

    And there will be more pix of my car soon (hopefully), but nothing big happened in the last months. Will share asap

    Now back to the Japanese car. From what I know it is owned by someone in Osaka. I surfed a lot of the Japanese blogs but can't find any update on that car.
    When I started out with mine, that car was the inspiration for the grill and light treatment.
    So attached are all the shots i could find, and none of them is younger than 2008.
    And looking at all the great new customs that came from there, i am curious what the owner did in the last 2-3 years.

    Always interesting to see what others do for to a '41.
    So it would be great if someone out there knows more and can post something.

    Cheers

    I had saved some pics of this car as well (same ones as above) but mine were named "JapChris" with a number, and I always ***umed that was the guy's HAMB name. Might be worth looking into.

    I found a few cool pics. I'm sure you've seen some of them before! The light green car is one I've had photoshopped by Rikster. Still looking out for the Japan coupe....

    Thanks a lot Eric...great cars despite the unfinished one :) and love them all.
    But I really look for the Japanese car.

    Also, no news form Japchris yet

    When i started out with mine, this eggplant coupe was the blueprint for the front treatment. So i am really curious wht the owner did with the car in the meantime...

    Especially when you look at all the great customs that you right now can see coming out of Japan.

    and for sure I can't wait to see how yours will come along...once again. thanks a LOT for sharing the whole process.
