FASTBACK340 Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 That's one of the sweeeeeetest builds I've seen on this forum so far. The detailing, subject matter, and execution is first-rate!
Burnout Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Great job! I really like weathering of the engine and chute. Edited February 14, 2012 by Burnout
realgone58 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Wild!!!!! Love those leaning tower of powers.
rustybill1960 Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 Super sharp slant sixsling shot, Supurb Man! Thank You for sharing Later Russ
ShawnS Posted February 15, 2012 Posted February 15, 2012 What a fabulous build. That engine is perfect in every way.
Art Laski Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 That's absolutely killer. The motor detail is first rate! -Art
charlie8575 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 As a rule Dragsters don't interest me all that much. But who can resist a slant 6 with webers and flat white pipes. Great Build. Second that on all counts. Charlie Larkin
rmvw guy Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 WOW!!! Very nice, I love it, the slant 6 looks great and the carbs, and everything else. WOW, WOW, WOW!!!!!
Nitro Neil Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) Manuel, this is one of the best FE dragsters I have ever seen. Perfect details for that low-buck feel that you were going for. I spent nearly a decade as the track photographer at two different drag strips and this reminds my very much of more than one of those low budget racers that run at tracks every week. No dzus fasteners, no billet parts, no braided hoses, built from whatever parts they have lying around, and with more than a little duct tape thrown in for good measure. Simply beautiful. And I love your screen name too. That one of my favorite songs of all time. Edited February 19, 2012 by Nitro Neil
kenb Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Let me tell you. I have to keep coming back to look at these pictures. This is an awesome build. I like the build, the subject, the colors, evrything. Well done. Ken
mr moto Posted February 19, 2012 Author Posted February 19, 2012 I can't thank everybody enough for all the kind words. It was fun to build something that wasn't trying to be the biggest, baddest, best anything. You really have to stop and think "How would those guys have done it?"
David G. Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 An interesting subject very well done. Love the detailing and weathering. David G.
traditional Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 A great concept, and superbly executed! I love it!! D/Dragsters were seldom big buck affairs but usually passionately done. This represents the class perfectly.
CanadianKronik Posted March 4, 2012 Posted March 4, 2012 Very cool, Nice job on the engine and detailing.
Qwit Pushin Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Super job on the engine detailing!! Unusual subject done to a high degree, love it!!!
mopar68 Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Slant six + tripple webbers = Winner. Great build Manuel, it all works together really well I think.
mcandela Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Wow!!! Great build, something very unique, AWESOME!!!
