The stance is perfect and I really like the intake. The carbon fiber is a very nice touch. I don't see a lot of racing builds with Ford heads, so this is a treat. I like the paint and the details on the wheels too. Welcome to the forum.
The paint work is impressive as are the engine details. I think it's awesome that you and your son build and can share techniques, ideas, and resources. Congratulations on getting back into the hobby and welcome to the forum.
I love the subtle mods to the body, particularly the replacement of rear tail lights. The rear looks lighter and cleaner. The intake trumpets look outstanding. Did you heat the leather tool before you inserted it into the plastic tube? I have a doming block and punch tool that think I can use in the same way you used the leather tool. What size is the tube? The paint colors and application are stunning. What interior colors are you going to use?
The body mods look great. I like the use of the tape to make your reference points easier to locate. I will borrow that one for sure. I'm looking forward to your updates.
Dirk,
Outstanding and inventive work. I'm glad that you did not machine the slick, because your method can be used by us non-machinists. What was thickness of the plastic sheet that you used to make the side walls?
The body looks good in primer. Try cutting a sliver of black electrical tape for the fan belt. Alternatively, you use a piece of notebook paper colored with a black sharpie like I did on this
Good luck
Wayne the scoops look awsome. I can't see the shape that you started with. What tools are you using to shape the scoops. I think I see some minor file marks.
I'm running out superlatives for this thing. The multi-piece clutch is just sick. You and Bob make quite the team. I love the blower work also. I was out of town for a few days over the Thanksgiving break. I'm going to call Reggie tonight or tomorrow to see if he is going to the ACME meeting on Sunday.
