Thanks guys,
Soon I will start on the engine build. Just posting some old pics of my resin parts that I´m going to use.

Thanks for posting these pictures. I've wondered why my attempts to use a dremel as a lathe turned out so poorly. I didn't use a stable base or the right type of cutting tool. Now, I'm anxious to try it again.

Rickard, so I have to ask what are you using to turn the styrene down? It looks like they are Xacto blades that are broken off or are you suing something different? What are you using to make the concave section of the Mag towards the bottom?

Hi all,
It´s time to get back on track with this build....again
For this setup I used my resin cast supercharger and manifold. I´m gonna add some more details before I proceed with the injector build.
Hope you like it so far...



Thanks for looking in...

Rick, That is some outstanding work you have done. Are you going to sell any of your stuff? Please let as know

[eviltwincustoms]

Very cool update, I have been wondering when you would be updating this post to pull it back from the DEEP depths of past posts...! I am excited to see this one on the move again. Because that Nova was HOT, I can only imagine how this Vette is going to turn out.

Rickard I do have a few questions about the body mods you made to the Vette, if you don't mind sharing... I was wondering if you would share the reason why you cut the peaks off the rear fenders? I know based on the rear split windows you raised the height of the fenders for the wheels to lower the back end down.. did you use all new styrene to mold new fenders or did you cut part of the original to bend it up? Then use styrene rod to fill in the gap?




I have been racking my head trying to figure out what you did to create that higher rear fender.

Thanks for the insight!

[Dr. Cranky]

Amazing work on all the little details. Everything is looking great. Please keep it going.

[gasser59]

Alright!!! This vette is back on the bench. Loving all of the little details and craftmanship on this. If you ever decide to sell your cast engine parts, sign me up for a few.

So where can I see this '66 Nova / Chevy II everyone's referring to? Somehow I missed that one.

[John Teresi]

Rick.......someone always comes along that is just a phenomenal scratch builder.......and you are "it" my friend.......your work is just totally AWESOME!!!!!!!!

[RickArt]

Thanks for all comments...time for a small update.
