I had to take a second look. Just a quick glance it looked like a real block sitting their waiting to go into a build. If you had that block mounted to a block stand it could easily pass as being a 1:1.

BIG BABY JESUS !!!! .... now that's the business right there.. I wish I had one of them for my 1:1 car... oh wait this is a model... lol.... :D Killin it Dave...

This is absolutely incredible. WOW! Keep up the good work Dave. Can't wait to see this completed. Gives me major inspiration for keeping up a high level of detail and quality work on my '67 Vette. :D

Hope everything is okay with you and your family. Now if it is to work on your new 1:1 project you posted... I think that would be where I would pour my time into something you and your wife could enjoy. :)

thanks for asking bart. everything is fine here. i'm trying to get all my ducks in a row for the new 1:1 project. lot's to get handled in a short amount of time.

it'll be some good times i'm sure.

Sweet that is good to hear. I would really like to hear more about your 1:1 project. So the original owner wouldn't go for throwing in the 900+ cubic inch Pat Musi motor with the deal huh?

I will have to keep an eye out for possible updates on your major project. :)

bart, here's the deal. rich shainline put his '37 chevy pro mod up for sale. the guys at precision worked their butts off to come up with a win - win deal for rich and myself. i can't begin to thank rich, jim and doug for the effort they went through to make this deal happen. anyway, i'm going to be purchasing the car. i'm just finishing up all the loose ends on my deal to get the money together to buy it. the bank now officially is in the soul acquisition business.

as far as the 903 pat musi motor. i only wish i could afford it! hehe. the thing makes incredible power.

the car is going to be transformed into a (excuse me as i clear my throat, ahem) street car. it will live out the rest of it's life without the brutality of 3000h.p. spanking it.

here are some shots of the car:

i will be removing the aero nose and replacing it with a more stock looking unit.

Ok....it's all falling into perspective now..................... ;)

That "scale motor" you've been posting, is REALLY out of the 37, ain't it??? :rolleyes:

:lol: No, seriously....you have no idea how much I have missed this stuff from you Dave.

I am so pleased to finally get back and see some truly amazing work being handed to us by one of the best guys out there. :wub: Thanks mate. :)

GREAT work securing your new "street car" too......that will be wild, and another amazing build to watch evolve. B)
