  20. the headers in my pic above, are that style anthony but, just in case here's another set i did.
  21. scratch built headers are difficult at best. they are a night mare at their worst. the amount of satisfaction will be dependent on the effort put forth. more effort ........better results. do your home work BEFORE you start.
  22. john, many thanks buddy! joe, i have noticed that joe. you and i seem to be on a common link. so, been busy with some LARGE developments on the "37. the little cars had to suffer a little. any way, got a gauge package together. the air shifter stuff is a work in progress. steering wheel is done. also made the nitrous bottle mounts and the air bottle for the shifter. still need to make some gauges and regulators for both bottles....but we'll get there. geez, i hope i don't get scolded for the blury picture.
  23. tim, i can only imagine how beautiful this will be once it's attached to that piece of jewlery, quick change. OUTSTANDING!!!
  24. yes, it is an air supply to the driver.
  25. dave, the bottle could be compressed air for an air shifter. this would NOT be period correct for the original car but, you said this is a tribute car not the original. correct? do you have some pics you could share of it's mounting and placement? might help a little.
