brett Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brett Posted August 11, 2010 Author Share Posted August 11, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragline Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 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. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
