  1. Is it just me or do the five spoke wheels look like they may be M/Ts.
  2. That is really cool. Is it soft like the real padding? I take it I will need to slice it and then just slip it over the roll cage tube. Next you need to come up with 1/25 and 1/16 racers tape.
  3. Hi, You can block non US buyers if you want. Just click on do not accept bids from areas I do not ship or something real close to that. My brother left for Brazil this morning he could have taken it with.
  4. I am loving the detail I can put into the 1/16 scale parts I make compared to the 1/25.
  5. You did a great job with the brakes I really like the red axle ends.
  6. Outstanding, I love the paint, everything is perfect.
  7. That turned out Killer. I love the...will everything!
  8. Those are really nice. You ever do company logos, like say Micro Nitro?
  9. Kenny called my brothers shop yesterday and said to stop on the new car they were in the mid of building. He said there was not enough money to race anymore. A sad day for drag racing.
  10. On second thought I really am an idiot I should have gotten more copes I could have made some money.
  11. Hi Cranky I got a copy when Boarders went out of business for about $16.00. Yes I just had to post to brag, what an idiot I can be.
  12. Fantastic
  13. I do not think any compressor is quite. I have mine in a room in the basement we do not use and run to my shop with a piece of PEX. In a shop years ago we made a vented box outside to put the compressor in so we would not have to hear it all day. Sorry I can not be more help.
  14. very nice
  15. Very very cool, it turned out great. I used to love watching them run at Road America.
  16. I will make new parts this week at no charge and get them to you.
  17. I bet I messed up not Chris, If the rotary table is off .005" that will make the bolt circle off by .010" so it is easy to mess up. I try to make all the parts that fit together with out removing and replacing the table but sometimes I can not. I picked .300 because that is 4.80" 1:1 in 1:16 scale witch is kinda in the mid of what is used on race cars so should look right. On the plus side Chris will have some extra parts for his next drag race project.
  18. Chris - Witch did a screw up the wheels or the hubs. They were both suppose to be 5 on.300" dia. I will make a new pair of witch ever would be less work for you. Man I am sorry! I have you pulleys turned but need to set up the mill to do the cogs. Bart - I got your centers done except for the outer holes I should get the bit for them and the bead locks tomorrow.
  19. That is just so cool!
  20. That is beautiful it has a almost real look to it. . Last night in our small town weekly paper there was an announcement for an auction this weekend that has a blue 68 Shelby Mustang gt 500. The best part is it has less than 10,000 miles on is. The lady that owned it son died in the 70's and it was his car and she has had it all this time fifteen minutes from my house.
  21. Thanks Bart and Chris, Chris I think it was Monday when I mailed your hubs. I made Bart's rotors out of graphite impregnated Teflon and it really looks like the carbon rotors used on the 1:1 cars. I have been having a blast making this stuff.
  22. On Funny cars they always hook to the center of the rear end housing. Most of the time there is two plates with a bolt and bushing they loop around.
  23. Hey Bart, I got the Bell housing and brakes done I am waiting on a 3/32 center cut end mill to finish the bead locks. The bell housing is about .012" thick. I was so happy with the way they turned out I just had to post them.
  24. Revell's Anglia, I have never seen one were the doors fit.
