Such an amazing build, I love watching the chassis and all of the axles used in rollcage, struts, etc.

Too bad the curved panels aren't available in white yet, although I could hardly imagine it would take anything away from your entry :)

Interesting design on the shifter though doesn't it allow to engage two gears at the same time if you place the shifter halfway between the two sides?

Impressive scale and detailing.

I also love the Moby Dick. Great MOC, and the scale is impressive. Great details in the cabin and the engine compartment, and the roll cage is top notch. Great job.

Wow! Impressive. I like that it has no PF but would love to see it racing around (maybe a PF version later). What wheels are used?

Great model. I really like the sculpted body of the car. It looks like a proper race car.

Really good. I like the effort that you put it especially in the small details. Too bad that the curved panels are not in white yet (I hope so)

What are the dimensions ?

Thank you for your positive comments !! I'm glad you like it!!

Amazing details, one of my favorites now) Is it original livery, or available parts dependant?

Available parts (some parts do not exist in white.). Laminated did not want to.

Interesting design on the shifter though doesn't it allow to engage two gears at the same time if you place the shifter halfway between the two sides?

Impressive scale and detailing.

It can not be both at the same time to speed gearbox (not slipping through the shift lever from one shaft to another).

Wow! Impressive. I like that it has no PF but would love to see it racing around (maybe a PF version later). What wheels are used?

The front wheels to the 8070 set. The rear wheels to the 8458 set.

Really good. I like the effort that you put it especially in the small details. Too bad that the curved panels are not in white yet (I hope so)

Realistic, I read the wikipedia page on Moby Dick and then looked back at the pictures in this thread, you have overall captured the look of it well.

Thanks. I tried to copy the best of the original car. Unfortunately, the colors were tied my hands.
