Hey everyone, this week we check out a beautiful handcrafted addition to Dan’s Office. This walnut and glass display case was created in the wood shop here at FantomWorks. Designed to fit within the original windows that separated Dan’s Office from his personal entrance into the Malt Shop, they hold Dan’s favorite from his collection. Holding over a hundred models from small matchbox size cars to the larger C1 Corvette, this wonderful addition allows the models to be displayed but not get overly dusty in this shop environment. The glass display case include a bookshelf bottom that hold Dan’s collection of automobile manuals and various automobile related books. Still in the process of being completed, these glass cabinets will have overhead lighting that will illuminate each shelf, allowing the beauty of each model to be shown. So if you ever come down to the shop for a Friday tour, peer through the glass to check out this excellent example of the work we do here at FantomWorks.
Really enjoyed the recent show restoring the Chrysler and Ford. The attention to detail and correctness was outstanding.
Wonderful collection of model cars. I’m a collector myself, mostly Ferrari’s and Porsche’s, scales 1/18 and 1/8.

Have you ever or ever done a show on Lancias? I once owned a 1959 Lancia Flaminia Zagato which I sorely miss every day. I purchased it in Italy many years ago while stationed there. I had to give it up as restoration costs where prohibitive to my income. At least I have bragging rights and memories.

Hi Dan I realy love your show the way you handle everything your complete professionalism. just a great gear head show.
This is gorgeous!! And looks FULL!! Where are you going to put any more? Because you know you will find that rare one more, or 2 or 3 customers will come in and bring you some!!
It is beautiful work, your woodworkers are to be commended. Just like the show with the carriage. It was just as beautiful even if he did go a touch over budget.
We got more in and this was the result. More Cars…
Wow, your show and all the talent!
