Fuel Coupe

great work as usual. Piling on the details means nothing if you can't pull it off cleanly. Good job...

really nice, awesome paint work

real trick work you're doing here..

Thank you Walter, I didn't have this pic please feel free to post more or I can shoot you my email and you can send them to me that way. , Bernard I tried checking that link a few months ago and it didnt work, Thanks for re-posting this as I've been wanting to read it.. From what I've read and told by Mr. Jobe was the secret was in the Home made 200 PSI injectors. No one was running that much pressure and it allowed the near 100% Nitro. There were some additives that kept it from being a true 100%. I loved the fact they told everyone in the pits they couldn't afford the beakers to measure the fuel so they just poured it in straight. The competition would panic and mix up a batch 5 or 10% hotter and cook their engine. Tom would just smile and fill up the tank again for next round.

If I based my participation in the "on the bench" and "under Glass" section of this or any other site on the responses to my builds I would have stopped building a long time ago.

Thanks everyone, Its good to be back. Ive missed building but have been having a ball with my 1:1. Bernard Kron: Thanks for the kudo's and info on the Mag. Dave: Thanks The axles turned out pretty good, I have the brakes shoes started and will be in a coming update 1320wayne: yes, I used the straightliners site and it was really easy to do... Nick, Please feel free to talk about the build but lets not turn this into who's a better driver than who, PM Hondo if you like, Thanks..

here is a couple more just set up on its wheels. Thanks for looking

Been a while guys and I haven't forgotten about the tutorial. With temps near 100 and a heat index of 109 Ive put the 1:1 away for a while and got back to my surfers car. Hand laced rims Built an axle for it. Went back to basics on the front axle. did a small amount of brass work

That dragster is awesome!!!

Will you be selling these?

fantastic work..

Bantams looking good man...

great job

great work on the decals Wayne. Nice job..

Part of why Im back to building is that its too hot to mess with the 1:1 car. Temps here in the upper 90's to 100+ with humity in the upper 80's. We are starting to get some rain finally but its sporatic. Once its gone it gets steamy....

I REALLY like this Alyn!!

nice work John. Turned out great..

Very nice soldering work. I dabble in brass/copper/tin etc. But nothing to your caliber. I do have one question, Where did you get the copper rings for the steering wheel? Did you bend or buy those. Again, Thanks for the tutorial.

great work John
