I think you could've said the two in the foreground are 1/6 and 1/16 and the background wheels are 1:1 and we wouldn't have known any better. ;)

Absolutely beautiful work. smiley_thumbs_up.gif

I don't know what he was going to use for tires. The customer was doing a front engine dragster. He was using a testors 1/6 scale hemi for the motor.

I have to agree, I just got my first 1/16 scale set from Jim today and they are gorgeous. I would like to see him do a few other styles of drag race rims :lol:. I would buy and definitely recommend them.

I'm at a loss for words. I had a friend that lived down the street that had a complete machine shop in his garage. He did Aerospace work. I never could get him interested in doing something like this.He'd tell me " Go ahead, I wont be using such and such machine for a few days. Way beyond my expertise. Jim you got it.
