Flathead fed

[brett]

Using the hemisphere for the basis of this build, flathead's been sourced from mainly the parts bins with only the block having a known kit from whence it came (amt 36 ford). not running any front body panels and hoping to reasonably detail the engine

got some color on today

and started detailing the engine, more to show in a day or two

[Dragline]

Sweet looking digger already!

I'm looking forward to the rest of it.

[John Teresi]

Brett.....you got an excellent start going......gladd to see another drag car builder in the bunch.......we need to recruit more drag builders..........if they tried it, I bet they would like it......especially if they see a drag car in person going down the 1/4 mile........can`t wait to see your dragster finished.

Meanest Flattie I've seen in a long time!

[brett]

Thanks guys. Jim ,I use those ties for all sorts of detailing.

[brett]

little bit more done, need to decide on which wheels and which scoop ie one I've been using the funky or the ribbed bug catcher

paint and decals with original style scoop (one I've been using is soaking in oven cleaner so I can tidy up the join seams, will alclad if I use it)

funky looking scoop, and these slicks are pie crusts though the pics not showing it

kit slicks with a mr gasket style ribbed hat

not sure which combo I like best, opinions? last gratuitous shot for the day

[baddgass]

Nice old style build.

[brett]

Thanks baddgas, decided the scot hat I had was to big, using the pie crust not that thy're showing up in the pics very well, only really have cockpit detailing to go

scot hat and best shot of slicks above , hat I'm using below

[Dragline]

I like the hat you're staying with Brett.

This is looking real good and I like the reversal of the Skippers Critter graphics.

Inventive.
