  1. Great work as usual buddy
  2. Great work on that sunroof
  3. Pretty cool, I've done a lot of research on inline 6 motors lately, it's crazy the ideas put to use out there
  4. Haha I am buikding one too, just a little "different"
  5. This could be the motivation I need, this little thing has been sitting like this for over a decade. You can tell by the yellowing. I have half a mind to make it a "in progress" build to tow behind my uhauler. Seems like the perfect mini truck show vehicles to me.. Plan is to finish the body work and finish it in primer, undo some of the hacking I did when I didn't know any better, abd build a new chassis. Might not even do a engine or glass.. We will see.
  6. Huh, who'd a think a uhaul would be so popular..
  7. couldn't help myself, had to mock it all up again after I got the fuel rail and linkage started. I cant wait for paint!
  8. easier to see with a little primer, needs a bit of cleanup, but overall not to bad.
  9. thanks again everyone. Your comments are very motivating and appreciated. Tackled the block detail and pulleys this morning, I was dreading this part because I knew this would be what either made this engine, or threw the whole thing off. I am very pleased with how it turned out, and while not 100% accurate or perfect, I think its quite convincing. Cut up a modern ford motor to get the front of the engine detail and pulleys and belts. a cut here and there and it was good to go. fit in the engine compartment, Ill source an alternator and make a bracket next. still a little cleanup needed, but that's pretty much everything..
  10. Got it lined up with the exhaust I made for it previously
  11. Thanks everyone Means a lot from a builder of your caliber, thanks!!
  12. Oh yeah this has the look for sure, love the big headlights
  13. So I never have good luck with photo etch, I coukd t stand how those flanges all were at different angles... Popped them off , cleaned up and made my own
  14. Not sure it's on topic or not, but Bill I did not expect those to be the cars you posted.. That's refreshing to me for some reason? Carry on
  15. Progress on the header, needs a little cleanup but I like it
  16. little tweaking and some finish sanding and I should be good to go.
  17. So clean in person, amazing as usual
  18. Decided to pick back up on this one, I was never really happy with the crazy noodles header. So I started over. I will make a flange and a tapered collector/down pipe to connect to my exhaust. I think this looks a lot more realistic.
  19. Well I think your 2% let you down, I was wondering what happened to this one! Love it
