The Great Race Sonic Torpedo

This is a project that I did for myself that was not a commission.  It is based on the movie The Great
Race from 1965 (starring Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis & Natalie Wood).  It is a combination kitbash/
conversion/scratch-build.  The wheels & tires are from a 1/35 scale MasterBox Models German
WWII bicycle (the wheels are probably around 26" in 1/35 scale & close to 18" in 1/24 scale, which
is what I wanted).  The Professor Fate (Jack Lemmon) figure started out as a 1/24 scale ICM Models
Henry Ford figure-  the shirt, collar, tie & face/head were modified, in addition to changing the derby/
bowler hat to a top hat.  Other than using plastic rivets from Tichy Train Group, the balance of the
model is pretty much scratch-built from plastic, brass, aluminum, wood, wire & epoxy putty.
