[arick]

Magnificant Dave! How did you carbon fibre the injector hat?

[LDO]

Did someone make 1/8 scale carbon fiber decals for you or are you using a smaller scale? This is not a criticism; I think it looks great. Just wonder if you found a source for big scale CF.

[Romell R]

OUTSTANDING!!!!

Dave,

I'm glad the Scale Motorsports carbon fiber sheets worked for you!

I love your builds as they are getting more and more detailed to the point of looking like an actual working motor. Can not wait to see the Cuda build.

[GrandpaMcGurk]

always appreciate your input dave. i'm glad you like it.

i can't wait for the 'cuda either. it should be an awesome project. i think it's really gonna be a challenge. just lots and lots of stuff goin' on in one of those cars.

Hi there Dave..just me rattling your your cage again with a small update and a question.

As you know this Cuda body was headed for limbo until TDR picked it up. Giving credit where it's due, the master as I received it was exceptional other than a few nit picky things that hurt my face & a few undercutting issues pertaining to casting it in glass. Those gremlins caused me more than a few hours of head-scratching but have been resolved. So the time has come for me to get busy making the multi piece bolt together glass mold.

As said before my main concern is squaring away Dan's original investors in this project....it's a ways out yet as I won't cast ANY until the mold makes the Madd Fabricator smile.

However, after seeing the rad modifications you made to the resin Cuda prototype I'm wondering if it wouldn't make your mods a little easier if I don't prime or open up the wheel wells etc. on your body. Seems to me it would be easier for you to make your mods before the extra material ( necessary due to the glass lay up) was removed....yes, no?

[Scott Colmer]

That's just crazy good.

[pharr7226]
