Thanks for the kind words, guys. It has taken years [literally], but it's good to finally see it setting on it's wheels.

WOW! Beautiful work!
what scale is that in?
Great Job!
Lola: When four springs just aren't enough.
It's 1 : 8. With the body on, it's about 20 inches long. I had to make it big enough that I could see it!

I cannot believe you are not worried about the drivers tiny feet being crushed with that front crash attenuator.
Very nice work sir!

Incredibly impressive. You need an Elf on a Shelf in there!
Sweeeeet! Excellent work! Will be be a completed car or just the frame? Any ideas on how the bodywork is going to be made of? Lexan or ABS?

The car has a body made of Smooth-on 65D castable plastic, but I am considering making one of fiberglass. That way the thickness would be more to scale. Here is a shot of that, as far as I've gotten..

I know, I know, but you just can't fit a decent crash-attenuator under the DB-1 nose. It's not my fault!I cannot believe you are not worried about the drivers tiny feet being crushed with that front crash attenuator.
Very nice work sir!

Utterly fabulous.
You could also consider 3-D printing. I think Shapeways is the company most modelers use.

if I hadn't already spent absolutely insane amounts of money on this, I'd love to do it in 3-D metal, with dot magnets to hold it in place. However, putting the word "metal" in front of 3-D printing is like putting the word "race" in front of car-parts. It would be cool, though! .
