Engine 51

One thing I am learning about this unit is that it looks like I will have to buy filters in bulk. The airflow in this thing really plugs the filters fast….but that’s OK, it’s doin it’s job.

Got this set up and have been putting it thru its paces. I am very pleased with its operation thus far. It does a great job of moving fumes (not a hint of paint odor in the shop). I will be using it a whole lot more in the near future as I am really backed up on my paint work.

That’s great to hear, glad he’s on the recovery road! Especially losing some of the numbness.

Finally pulled the trigger and ordered this spray booth. I got the optional 425 CFM motor. That option comes with a 5” discharge. I added an expander (5” to 6”) to make the duct 6” up and out thru the wall. I caulked the interior seams to seal it up a little better. It appears to be well made, looking forward to putting to work. Should be the last one I need to acquire.

Glad to hear that. All the best for a full and quick recovery!

Tis a beauty!

Wonderful….so nice to see it factory stock. Well done!

Yes, having that issue here as well. Great looking Cutlass BTW!

First day of spring…..means we should be good for one more major snowstorm☹️

Love it ?

?

Very nice. Always liked the “smiling sawfish”. Might have to hunt one of those kits up.

Nicely done, looks great.

Very nice…and doubly nice that you did it for your brother.

I gave this a go as well, using the satin black. Great results airbrushing it. I now have a new “go to” for frames, engine parts and some interior components. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

At least two of the International dump trucks will be headed my way.

Nice, really nice!

Thanks to all for the kind words. The encouragement helps after a long hard build like this one was.

Will have to go a get one of these. Been eyeing one for a while, but after seeing how nice yours turned out....gotta get one.

Really nice, well done!

Jeff, all the best re the ongoing issues with your dog. Really hope they can get it corrected, and soon.

Yes...A very Happy Birthday to her!!

Very nice!

After a year and a half it is complete. Much more work than I bargained for. The interior is fully detailed, the pre connects are all scratch built as well as the wheel chock docks. Scratch built the rota-beam, and opened up the grill. Glad it’s finished, on to the next one…..
