Cool that you got to see another Lemans. I like seeing them more than the gto,as most have been turned into gto's through the years. Kind of how there's more willy's coupes and cobras today than they actually ever produced.

here's a tutorial, but the size(glue) is chemical based. There may be an alternative adhesive, or something water based.

Don, is the thickness of the foil causing your issue? I've read a few "homemade bmf" tutorials and they all say the cheaper brands are thinner and what works better. Or is it an adhesion issue? Maybe the pva glue needs a bit of "tooth" to adhere to the foil,try brushing a fine scotchbrite pad or high grit sandpaper on the backside of the foil, and apply the glue to the foil. Another thought, but I have no experience with it,is silver leafing. Not sure if the glue used with that has any odor.

I believe so. The mismatch wheels caught my eye so I snapped the picture.

Only if caught

Vehicles that "self change" the oil. That's not a flaw, it's a feature. I've owned a few

My wife's jetta did volkswagen things today. severe misfire on one cylinder out of the blue. The irk came when swapping coils to diagnose, the miss cleared up. 25 minute test drive,still good. Odd. Five new plugs and replaced that coil pack anyway. Ordered 5 oem, I'm not trusting aftermarket.

That's how it starts, before you know it you've got an entire garage full, and still somehow you keep buying more. Clean them up, sharpen them, and put them to work.👍👍

I've been watching my boss deal with today's modern mess. What should be a simple windshield replacement has turned into 1500 dollars of headache for the guy, the camera/lane departure junk won't calibrate due to the aftermarket windshield safelight installed, his dash has ALL the Christmas emoji's lit up. An O.E.M one is on order, and he's arguing with safelight.

Welcome to the forum.

IIRC is not the acronym for intelligence indicated, retrograde condition, though it could be.

Nice daytona. The story and history behind them, and all the aero cars of that time, I find fascinating. Great work with the custom touches.👍👍

Fantastic work, good move letting the clear cure a good while. That looks too good to risk a blemish.👍👍

Shirley's surely sure she sold seashells shucked, sorted,and shouldered by Sven on Sundays.

Here's a couple pics of top fuel engines, they use the frame rail as a catch can. Some applications actually require a vacuum pump due to the pressures created in the crankcase. The last image is the ramchargers car, so old school setup. It will vary depending on application, this is one way they do things.

Cool looking build and welcome to the forum.

Start digging holes

Coffee fuels the majority of the working class.

According to Google, there's an inch and a half difference. 58 vs 59.50. If it bolts in, and nothing hits, you could make up the difference with wheel offset.

I knew the charger was some inspiration, can't mistake those lines. In one of your photos the roofline to the side looks very jaguar xk. Could just be me,or the angle of the photo. Very cool concept you've built, and great work finishing and making it a reality. 👍👍

Yup,this one's bad@#$. I'm liking what I'm seeing. 👍👍

Better lawyer hired

I've made windshields and windows from .010 clear acetate purchased from Michael's. Worked well for this 34 ford, but that is all flat "glass".

Interesting design, i see a few hints of different cars there. Can I ask what, if any, vehicles inspired you while designing this?
