Some great work here ... but that engine is out of this world! I just love all that plumbing!

Thanks man i appreciate it,I have over a hundred hrs in the motor so far and still have some pieces to make for it but i wanted something wild and thats what i got lol in the beginning it was just going to be a clean simple truck but she had her way and turned into this monster she is now

This thing is sick! I love it. I'm not a member there but, aren't you documenting this over on Lay It Low as well? It's so much easier to follow current builds on here with the chosen format.

Thank you very much man, yeah it is on layitlow but i thought all the ppl over here might like to check it out :)

When i started it i was trying to make each pipe out of one piece of styrene tubing but found that cutting it in different lengths,making the bends then marking n gluing them together was a lot easier n looks better

IMAG0686_zpsf9bccd00.jpg IMAG0608_zps6ebf1bc3.jpg IMAG0685_zpscd465d2f.jpg the rims I made are directional, with a matching steering wheel. The brakes I made out of a set of pegusus disc brakes and a set I got from Brian at Hack Shack Resins he also supplied the air-filters on the motor as well as casted my rim masters so i could have a whole set without making all four the lips for the rims I will be making on my lathe soon as well as some other goodies for this build
