  13. Thanks Jim. I was at Bruce Larson's Dragfest today and "just happened" to have two of your rims mounted with slicks and showed some of the car owners. One of the guys works for the company that has just started the Bruce Larson Tribute Car. It is an exact replica of the '68 USA-1 Camaro but will have NHRA approved chassis and safety equipment to run down the strip. He looked at your rims and said those are awesome. You model builders are crazy. It was a compliment. His coworker said these are aluminum? Really? Wow. The Micro Nitro legend grows.
  14. The primered parts look great Chris. Keep the progress coming.
  15. I took these pics at Bruce Larson's Dragfest today. It is Bill Kukla's Pro Stock Vega from 1976. He was involved in a wreck and seriously injured in Illinois. The car is now owned by a PA resident. I did not see anyone around the car to ask questions. I don't know if it will be restored.
  16. I took these pics today at Bruce Larson's annual Dragfest. This dragster is Great Expectations II.
  17. Thanks guys. Progress has been slow lately. Other stuff gets in the way. Ted- no, I've only tried the one size so far. Lately I've had some luck with cutting the braided line at an angle and feeding it through the fitting. Of course it doesn't always want to cooperate. I used white glue to hold the fitting to the styrene sheet so I had both hands free to feed the braided line and hold the sheet. But the idea worked really good. Lately I've been working with a different size line, so I haven't used that jig. Bill and Chris - thanks for the encouragement. When I dropped the engine into the frame with the fuel pump and line for a mockup, I discovered that the oil filters are almost blocking a hole for a return line on the fuel pump. I'll have to figure something out there. Thanks for looking.
