  1. Nice project!
  2. It actually came with a V8. I'm tryna decide if I'll use the vintage Pontiac engine I got in trade or a newer Vette engine.
  3. Sweet!
  4. I made my own for a Cyclone BFx clone I built. You could take a blower manifold that's flat and modify it. Not easy but possible. Norm of Replicas & Miniatures of Maryland offered one at one time I believe for the SBF, which is what I planned to use but it comes with carbs and I had my own as well. The pic of the engine with the manifold I fabricated is attached but you can't really make out the work.
  5. Lots of good fab work!
  6. Wow!
  7. Awesome fabrication work!
  8. Killer build!
  9. Very nice!
  10. Yep, I looked for those a while back before I even bought the file and it was ridiculous how expensive they were. I didn't see one under $100 when I was looking.
  11. Thanks, it was a lot, but not as hard as it looks. It was about a good hour of sanding Right now there are some small spots to do and the hood and trunk.
  12. I'm entering a Karmann Ghia, built using the Tamiya 1966 Beetle kit. I had to wait until I got a successful print, and then had to see if it was usable, as I've never printed a model body before. At first I printed the whole body but broke it trying to remove the supports. Then I cut the file in half in Meshmixer and printed it in halves and then glued them together. It came out smoother because I used a smaller nozzle and better quality settings. I wound up making it a convertible when I realized I didn't have a rear glass. I cut the windshield from one I had in the parts box. My entry in the last P2P was a convertible too. Maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment!
  13. Very nice!
  14. Welcome Matthew!
