Builder's Notes: 

I am sending three photos of the Ferraiuolo Grant King 73 model that I built last year to share with the folks.  The car is made of brass and steel and some plastic.  It started out as an hour here, an hour there project but as it started taking shape it became a bit of an obsession.  It was a great project for me and there a lot of around the house things on the car that might surprise a few. The car is about 15" wide, 30" long and 11-1/2" high.

02.09.15 Scott Snyder  Great job Wayne! That's an incredible Replica. I had to look at these pictures several times. I couldn't believe the details. I remember your entry's in the Danner's Hobby Shop model contests back in the day. Yours were the last entry to be displayed, but you, or Jack Kromer usually had the winning entry. Congratulations on another Masterful Build.

The attention to detail is amazing here. I have a picture of the restored 73 sitting on Jack stands in the shop that at first glance looks just like the first picture. Nice job Wayne and thanks for keeping 73 alive.

Thank you for the very kind words Scott and Anthony.  The 73's were always among the very best looking cars anywhere they raced.   Scott, I can't believe you remember those days.  Thank you.  And Anthony, you were very helpful along the way with your comments on various posts about the King cars.  You also let me in on the family color.  That was the key to everything. Thank you.

Great work, Wayne! Amazing detail. That's one of a kind. There is only one other 73 that's larger than that one and that's the real 73!
