Just for giggles, my car can lift the front tire too. lol

Competition Resin has a cross ram that could be easily modified to look like the Edelbrock intake they used. Cheaper than a kit.

Great pics you have there. That dash shot shows the oil tank at the rear. And yes, those old fire extinguishers where pretty big back in the day when they started using them. I was surprised not to see a blower motor on the rear end cooler though, just that duct hose.

LOL, they got the valve covers on the wrong side. vents go to the front and oil cap on wrong side. Wrong carb too. But a nice-looking engine.

Check Ice Man Collectibles. He has some 3d printed people and characters.

Paint won't stick to chrome. It should polish right off the chrome.

Thanks. I think that's the one I looked at. That's a two blade prop and wrong model. Need a G-21. Not sure if I can make that one work or not. But, I'll keep that one in mind.

Nice looking plane.

Thanks for that info. Will do.

Looking for a 1/48 scale Grumman G-21A Goose. Probably a long shot, but I thought I'd ask. The G-21 Goose has a 3 blade prop and ones that I have found are mostly two blade props and they are the wrong model.

More than welcome. Drill bit was a good suggestion too,OB. Now why didn't I think of that. lol

Do you have a local Hobby Lobby or Hardware Store? You can take the wheel backs in with you and measure them against the rods that they have in stock if you don't have a caliper to measure them with. Those are cheap to at Walmart. They only go down to the 100's though, not the 1000's. I think less than ten bucks. Harbor Freight has them too. They get more pricey as you get into the ones that measure to the 1000'sth.

Thanks, I thought so. Sorry if I hijacked the thread there.

Wasn't she Robert Mitchums girlfriend in "Thunder Road"?

Sorry about that. I was just looking at the one in your pic and was thinking out loud.
