Chuck Most Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Do I have to say I like where this is going?
flamefink Posted October 4, 2010 Posted October 4, 2010 Lookin good! Just one quick suggestion, you might want to take the master cylinder off and turn it over... The way it is on there right now will have the lid facing the ground when its sitting on all fours.

Alyn Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Fantastic! What an attention grabber. I scolled to the second picture (with the radiator shell) and bam! It hits you right in the eye balls. Great job on every aspect of the build including staying true to Jairus' original concept. You are truly the Metal Master.
moparmagiclives Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 Killer subject, and great job following it out. Here is your next mission, if you so choose.. This was taken at the Evergreen air and space mus. in McMinville Or. a few years back. It was sitting next to a P40 warhawk...pretty cool itself

aksarben Posted October 8, 2010 Posted October 8, 2010 That finish is unbelievable, great stuff. The supercharger is a piece of art. One thing, your star and bar on the left side is upside down. Steve
