Didn't visited the forum in a while because my personal situation changed.
But man, what a nice build.. I admire your work.

So, is the headless Al Jr. in honor of Halloween? The work you've done on the Galmer is most impressive and inspiring. I didn't think ANYBODY would tackle it given how much of an oddball that car was compared to the Lolas and Penskes of that year. But I admit its shape is rather pleasing to the eye in its speedway wings guise.

Thanks zip & jm. I always loved this chassis & have wanted to make it for a long time.

I like the black wheels better - it is an improvement.

Oh my god, what a result. With the black wheels the wheel covers really come out very nice. I can only dream of such mastermodelling. I wonder what your next project will be? As Luyendyk fan I prefer a 98/99 model perhaps?

Yes, the black wheels really make it stand out under the wheel covers. Super Work Ralph!

I always have some serious modelling/collection issues in the summer when the good weather strikes. It's raining the crap out of here lately so my modelling spirit is also back now. I know what you mean.

Kinda surprised to see this on Ebay. I made this Sullivan for a guy in Italy 4 years ago from a Senna Lotus 97T. Maybe having financial trouble or something. Also made him the 71 gold Emo turbine. www.ebay.com/itm/321240021451

Ralph don't feel to bad looks like he is getting rid of all his Indy car collection. I remember the gold Emmo car was amazing work you did. I see he does not have that listed. It will be interesting to see how much the 85 winner goes for. I put a few bids on it and will keep watching it.
