- Doug gives us a tour of his Warren Hanson's Double Zero model, as it raced at the Danbury Racearena in the early 60s. Full of surprising details, see how he honored the driver, mechanics, and the Marcus Dairy, created working steering in scale, and achieved the look of hand painted lettering. 1997 winner of NNL East's People's Choice, and MassCar Model Car Exhibition's Best Scratchbuilt, Best Oval Track, and Best in Show.

What an honor making the replica for the original owner
Instant winner at any contest, "OUTSTANDING".......
Man I love the day Man i loved thouse days. now here we are
The details and work put into this build is insane! Awesome job Doug!!
Man oh man, the detail is so incredible. Even the tires. You go to a model show and none of the tires looks real. These look like the real thing
Beautiful Stock Car build!!. Impeccable details!!
Man have I got alot to learn.. very nice example of history... thanks Doug.
Really enjoyed Doug .................. 🙂😉👍
Thanks!
@@ModelCarMuse 👍
Fantastic Modified. Time to get building again. Beautiful work!!
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱‼️‼️‼️ Absolutely " STUNNING " Work Doug !! Such " INCREDIBLE " Detailing. My God She's " GORGEOUS " !!! Thank You For Sharing Your " God Given " Talents With Us Sir. Have a Blessed Wknd Ahead.
Outstanding level of detail Doug. An inspiring build.
Thank you kindly
Just wow Doug, that is superb modelling right there.
Thanks!
Nothing short of a masterpiece
Doug, What an absolutely beautiful vintage modified! (Reminds me of Auggie's work.) I remember the magazine article, being stunned by the detail work on this car. (Then hearing about building it twice, at different times is pretty amazing in itself!) I love when you review your own work, you are just really humble about it even though you've attained the top spot many times. There is absolutely no air of superiority in your voice or the words to describe it. It's just a hobby. We build replicas for the love of all things automotive, not specifically to compete in "the Big Show". Competing against our modeling peers isn't the real reason why most of us build, shows are fun, the comradery is better, winning is great, but it's not the reason we built it in the first place!
Wow, thanks. Augie Hiscano was a big influence on me.
Thats really incredible!
That build was amazing the first time I saw it! Loved that car, way above my skill level.
What an incredible job you did on that engine!!
Amazing Build - Stunning!
Wow! The attention to detail is amazing Doug. I remember this car in SAE it was an amazing build.
WAW what an inspiration Doug, i love to do replica cars but never tucked one to this level of details, thanks for sharing this
Wow! Totally amazing!
Great video Doug
Fabulous model, Doug!
Thanks!
Outstanding Doug!! Love it!! A stunning replica!!
Thank you kindly!
That is brilliant.
Excellent build great tribute to history
Thanks!
We used the big Chrysler six in several modified racers back in the day and it was great to see one in such a fine model. I have been involved in building and racing slot cars for fifty years and racing real cars for about forty. This particular model has been an inspiration for many of my "hardbody" slot car builds ever since I first saw it on the cover of one of the model magazines. It is always a joy to look at, thanks for letting us see it again.
You're welcome!
True masterpiece! Thanks for sharing.
I have that magazine in my collection also. It shows what is achievable in scale. Building replicas is quite rewarding. Thanks for 'guided tour' of the OO race car. Cheers
I am a fan of the old circle tracks too! In fact, my Father raced on the dirt tracks in central N.Y.
We would go to the races every weekend. Start out on Friday, right through Sunday night. I am
a model builder. Mostly race cars(Dirt & Asphalt)but I do build street cars & trucks too! So I
REALLY do appreciate these kinds of videos. All of your videos are great & inspiring, but I particularly
love these kinds of videos!!!! Thanks again Doug.
Thanks!
I grew up by all those places...Chase Parkway Garage!! I probably saw that car on a hauler.. that was really popular stuff back in the 50s n 60s
Superb details! WOW!!
A most excellent story.
The details are amazing !
You never cease to amaze me Doug. Just when I start to think I got stuff half way figured out, I see you explain this. What an incredible model, and insight to how it was built.
Thanks Clay. Looking forward to seeing more of your awesome builds!
WOW! Talk about detail! Fantastic buddy, absolutely fantastic!
Glad you liked it
@@ModelCarMuse - yes sir, absolutely!
Beautiful replica most have taken forever to build with all that detail
This is next level. Hats off to you on this caliber of detail and thoroughness. Fantastic
Truly amazing! A masterful build; brings back my memories of the Danbury Fair Racearena in convincing detail. Kudos to you, Doug!
👍👍
I have loved this build for quite sometime. My father and uncle both worked on cars at Danbury, some of which have been the subject of my builds. I saw the cover of the magazine long after I got into the hobby seriously and had to track down a past issue to dig into the details and use as inspiration for my builds. Doug, your craftsmanship and efforts on this channel are greatly appreciated.
Thanks, glad to be of help!
@@ModelCarMuse awesome stuff, you rock
Absolutely incredible! The level of detail is out of this world! Looks like you could hop in and go racing!!!
Amazing!!! Thank you for sharing with us
A cool 😎 piece of history of your local area in Connecticut too!!
Wow man, great details, great story!
What an amazing model. That detail is second to none. Thanks for sharing.
This is fantastic!
Truly remarkable. 👍👍
Wow I’m blown away
Uh, WOW… Truly an amazing build… and you did it twice! 👍🏻
After seeing this i am thinking of getting back into it after 60 decades .. (i was 12 when i started) still have many of my models from back then too stored away someplace! ... THANKS DOUG!
Welcome back!
You must have drunk from the fountain of youth to be over 600 years old. 😋
One decade is👀 only 10 years Perdro🤠
@@thompetersenautoart haha Yes i know. I was just jokingly nitpicking, but the original comment does say 60 decades.
Incredible build! Love your videos😎👍
Doug, what a gift you have!! I'm so amazed with even the smallest detail!! So cool!!
Awesome stuff Mr Doug!!!!
Glad you liked it!
Wonderful!
Ich liebe die Details, unglaublich.
Sehr gute Arbeit 👏
Doug I would love for you to do a video of chopping a top with your wood burning tool instead of glue. Love your videos, I've been building for40 years, still learning new methods!
Awesome job
Fantastic model. I can barely get my hands to do what I want them to, and then to see what you are capable of, I never cease to be amazed.
Thank you very much!
I was inspired by your video. Many thanks. I wish you success.
Hey Doug, really dig this whole series. Thanks!
That is one of he finest builds I've ever seen. Really appreciate the video tour.
Glad you liked it!
I was greatly appreciative when you included Early Racing Classics in playing a small part in this build. I had seen some of your builds in magazine contests and was blown away by the skill and detail you achieved. What surprised me the most was finding out that we grew up in the same town and both were able to enjoy going to the Racearena Saturday nights.Knowing that you are a professional photographer, I must say that I am a little disappointed that you couldn’t find a way to capture an image of the piece of used chewing gum stuck on the underside of the dashboard that you included in this build. Just because it doesn’t have Dan’s DNA doesn’t mean it’s not worth mentioning!😉
I'll try to be more thorough next time. Thanks for remembering that detail!
Incredible build Doug, amazing detail. I’m extremely impressed mate.👍
Awesome video Doug! I had to watch it twice to enjoy all the details. I also attended races at Danbury when I was a kid - it was a great place to grow up! - Jim
You did a great job!!! Buzzie Reutimann also drove a #00 at Nazareth Speedway, PA, Orange County Fairgrounds, Middletown NY, Reading Fairgrounds, Reading PA
Yes! That one is more well known.
Awesome 👏
Another broadcast level production quality video! The level of production quality of your channel’s videos make it so much easier for people who aren’t into model cars to appreciate the talent, skill and hard work that go into these works of art. For those of us who ARE into model cars, your videos are a source of boundless inspiration. Seeing and hearing The Masters of our hobby (yourself included Doug) discuss their work and the passion behind their creations is something many of us look forward to seeing on this channel. Thanks very much for another great video!
Thanks! I have a great team in my wife and son, and we have a great time making these videos.
Sir you are one fine craftsman. After watching your video I am disappointed in myself for putting the hobby aside for the last 40 years. I hope the builds I plan to start soon are 1/4th as nice as this.
The important thing is you are building again! Have fun!
Glad to see a new vid! That model is so beautifully well done. It's amazing.
I don't know if you can hear it but I'm still shaking my head in amazement. lol
Thanks!
A straight-6 motor was raced in the old days...the Hobby Division @ Pinecrest & Flamboro Speedways in Ontaio, Canada...
You did an Amazing job on 00!!!! I remember the mag. article. Nice Work!!!!
Thanks!
Hello from CT. I just discovered your channel and after seeing this build, subscribed immediately. I am looking forward to delving into your other videos. Brilliant workmanship - thank you for sharing it...
Awesome! Thank you!
Awesome!
Great content for the model community.
There isn’t anything out there like this. Keep it up 👍
What an amazing build! Thanks for sharing!
OMG that is top of the class , vary cool
Fantastic work! Details on another level. 👍🏼
Fantastic Doug! Great story about the racer and the stunning replica you built! Wow, thank you for sharing this, I did not see that issue of SAE magazine
Amazing work, motivating and inspiring. Thank you for sharing.
Great build and video. Let's talk about that sweet old Walker Turner drill press back there.
My grandfather bought that brand new in the 1930s. It's a pleasure to use it in my shop!
Dang Doug!! 🙌
Thanks!
It turned out great! All that's missing is some "gooey" rubber spots. Some of that hot gummy rubber never comes off the body. Overall.. I love the detail!!
WAAAW prachtig 👌😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Perfection
Great model I remember this from sae
Simply breathtaking Doug....how did you make tge hinges...
I would like to try it
Glad you liked it. A video on how to do the hinges is on the production list!
What a great build and story. Would consider doing a video on the Art Barry #21 modified you built. Thanks for the videos.
Thinking of it!
Omg I have found my new model car builder to get ideas from. I grew up driving asphalt and dirt track circle track cars since I was 8 I'm 29 now and my first race car was a vintage modified class fiber glass bodies that was replicas of this body on this car metric frame chassis and a big 460 HP sbc 350 it was a beast we raced this series on dirt and asphalt traveling series min. Age was 13 but after showing series promoter I can drive he let me race and I ended up winning 12 races and the championship and rookie of year
Doug, truly amazing model. From Danbury, CT eh, you should watch the Netflex film on the Danbury Trashers hockey team. Take care...
Will do!
Beautiful work. Idea for your next video: machining techniques.
Great suggestion!
i grew up with my dad racing that type of car. and i have that scale auto as well .shocked you have not done the 711 Don Lajoie car yet
I do hope one day to replicate one of his cars.
That engine looks almost identical to the engine in the 41 Plymouth kit I built a couple of months back...
Watching your videos are giving me ideas on things i wat to try in future builds.
I mainly make Mad Max inspired post apocalyptic car builds and haven't seen many super detailed ones yet, at least on TH-cam or the few Facebook groups I'm part of.
What kind of advice you might have for some one who's been back at the hobby only for two to three years now and what kind of approach you might take on if you yourself would make an Mad Max inspired build?
Keep building! Study the inspiration car, decide what details you want to include in your model. Then, think of each component as a model in itself. Step by step those individual models will eventually come together to complete your vision.
PS love your channel. Have you ever used Jimmy Flintstone resin bodies...
Yes I have - his '34 Ford Bonneville Racer is one of my favorites.
Hey Doug, fantastic video. This car is amazing! Huge inspiration for me. You mentioned machining the brass radiator, the pulleys, and the battery caps. What's the process for this? Are there specific tools for scale machining or are you using full sized stuff? I've wanted to get into scale machining for awhile to learn a new skill, but I don't have any clue of where to start, what equipment is used, where to look for information, scale machining communities or companies, etc, etc. If you could point me in the right direction (or any direction) on where to find some of this info, it'd be greatly appreciated.
You've just given us some ideas for more videos! I have a mini-lathe. For starters check out the Micro Mark company at micromark.com. I think they also still put out a paper catalog.
@@ModelCarMuse Sweet! I drool over their paper catalogue every time it comes. I just wasn't sure if the mini lathes we're being used or full sized or some other method. Some of these parts are so small I just can't imagine them being made on even a mini lathe, but I have exactly 0 experience. Looking forward to your video!
@@ModelCarMuse Hey Doug, I keep coming back to this video to see see your fantastic when and get inspired. Hoping you still have plans for a scale machining video! Would love to see your tools and techniques. I'm wanting to get in but not sure where to start at this scale. Thank you
Was driven by han$um Harry Brasee.Hope i got the last name spelling correct .
Hi Doug, where can I get one of the 5 window coupe bodies?
They were sold by Early Racing Classics, and they are no longer in business. You might be able to find one on Ebay.
I'm curious on your feelings for the 2nd car you built, was it easier or harder to build, and was it as enjoyable? Also, you did such a truly amazing job. It looks it would fire right up.
I wondered too!
It was just as enjoyable, knowing how much it meant to the recipient, the actual car owner.
WAAAW prachtig 👌😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks!
