Looks great, and should look really cool when it is painted. The wheels need some covers to make them look like steel wheels.
Really good job on the body, not an easy shape to do.

I am so happy with the job Nick has done with the Sam Ferabend car . It's a project we talked about & Nick believed he could do it. As we can all see he has and I'm sure Sam would be proud to see such a great job done in honor of him & this great car. If anyone would like a car done of there favorite driver, then Nick is the man to see. Good bloke as well

I am so happy that Sam has got to see this car made in his honor. I was & always will be a big fan of Sam & the Pall Mall team of that time. I lost all my photos of Sam so thought something like this would be great. Nick has done a great job of the car & I will treasure it. Please Pall Mall could you say hello to Sam from the Morgans.

Surely will, Sam is busy these days with fishing and golf and still keeps lubricated with the odd Lion red. I think he enjoyed his Waikaraka Park outing on Saturday night.

I sold the 26a car to the late Bill Curtin and one of his workers they raced it out of Rotorua in the early 80's not sure after that (maybe Porry and co. found it out the back of Bill yard?)
There is a RMIA on the 14a car a way back and on the Kuriger thread here also it is apparently in Christchurch.

Its such a shame these things arent kept and looked after. I know if i got my hands on all the unwanted Stockcars and modifieds id need a 50,0000sqft warehouse to store them all. ;D
