Guest Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 That is incredible! I just dont believe that you assembled and painted and weathered this baby in 20 minutes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2002p51 Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 That's excellent. I'm not buying the twenty minutes part, but that's excellent work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dimaxion Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 very, very cool! looks like one of the PBL dio's? very realistic weathering and just enough detail to make it interesting and believable. Dave Imma no think thisa 20 minute project . I spent last winter on an Engine building jag . This does not detract a very convincing replica . In the day , road tests listed oil consumption right along with fuel econemy . If it didn't leak : it was running on it's last legs . The Factory Warrenties were 12 / 12 . Thanx for sharing ..

noname Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Thats super cool, the whole thing! The manifold looks like real rust. Pastels I presume? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Most Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I can buy the 20 minute build time- I've done a few engine builds in ten or twenty minutes. Few of them were as convincing as this, though! Now- what (if anything) is it going into? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxer Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 Very nice! Just the added flanges add so much to the realism and the weathering is superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brendan Posted October 22, 2009 Share Posted October 22, 2009 I think your engines leaking oil. Might be a gasket problem. Great job on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeepx Posted October 23, 2009 Share Posted October 23, 2009 Yeah, definitely an oil leak somewhere! Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
