  1. This is looking sweet! Following.
  2. Scratch built intake from 7 pieces of styrene sheet varying from.010” to .060”, as nobody makes a victor style intake for sb Mopar. High rise 6 pack intake is next to it to show true height.Next, making scatter shield.
  3. Oh yeah!
  4. Good luck on the respray, the candy blue really looked great on it. If not, primer gray and steal a Hemi out of a matador cop car?
  5. Fantastic! I love the eccentric idea, ingenious
  6. Going to look good in B5. One of the ones I ordered just showed up today, like you, I did find it a little disappointing. I was thinking of using at least part of roll bar for my Demon build. I didn’t think it would be so puny. I do like the clear backup lenses though. Nice engine and sweet Demon
  7. I am definitely following
  8. Next up, engine issues, first being oil pan. My car had an 8 qt. Moroso oil pan, the VCG engine only having stock pan. I measured everything with engine in place in chassis, making sure to clear steering, k frame and ground. I cut oil pan, made sump from .020” styrene, attached and molded to pan. Coming next, making the intake
  9. Great looking color on it
  10. Looking good. Nice and clean. I am in awe of how that engine compartment came out. At least this gives you plenty of room for headers. I have to highly modify the headers on my build. The torsion bars and steering leave very little room.
  11. Are the Bradford Pears already blooming there? I didn’t even start trimming stuff yet. I am waaaay behind. Pinto came out nice
  12. Looking good, loving the chrome bits
  13. Thanks Francis. It’s still rough, but it will all work out when I get closer to the bodywork stage. It has a long way to go. I will be using some of your favorite things really soon- aluminum. Your build is helping me in a big way. Thank you.
  14. It was their candy blue rendition I was speaking of.
  15. Removed .040” from base of scoop, blended in. It still needs some feathering, but we have a hood.
  16. Congrats. What a great build. I believe I have my wife talked into getting me the Muira. Fingers crossed.
  17. Great tips on the handles, loving the interior.
  18. That blue is going to look fantastic on that. It really makes me think of Stone Woods Cook Willys, was always my favorite.
  19. Love it!
  20. Great project, I vote for gray
  21. I received my scoop in the mail today. My car had a 5” scoop, this appears to be a 7”. Any thoughts out there as to do I file down base, or leave it as is?
  22. Looking great!
  23. This is the general idea, duplicated spot welds, trunk extension grooves to mirror under side. It will still have cage posts, battery, nitrous
  24. Working on trunk floor, as it will be seen
