Dragracer Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 Here is the front clip after I closed up the front wheelwells a little & removed the old bumper/airdam.
Dragracer Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 A side view (sorry so blurry) of the new wheelwell opening.
Dragracer Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 And the 2nd of my 2 P/N builds, the '64 Mercury Comet. Right now just in primer, the rear wing is taped on for the pic.
Dragracer Posted March 22, 2012 Author Posted March 22, 2012 The transmission, bellhousing and intake.
Dragracer Posted March 24, 2012 Author Posted March 24, 2012 I had ordered some bolts & such from R.B. Motion awhile back for these 2 builds & as with all the stuff from R.B. Motion it all looks good. The problem was that for certain parts I needed screws, so I checked out Scale Hardware, they now also carry parts from Tuner Model Manufactory, & guess what!, they have screws!, ordered a set of 0.6-1.4 mm common screws & 2 sets of 0.6 mm Philips head screws, ordered them on Tuesday & got them yesterday, now thats quick & they are great!
Mooneyzs Posted March 24, 2012 Posted March 24, 2012 Richard... that is awesome with scale hardware. Bob is a great guy to deal with and he has great parts and products. I have a bunch of his stuff as well as some of the Tuner model hardware too.
Romell R Posted March 27, 2012 Posted March 27, 2012 Good job Richard cant wait to see where this adventure takes you. and I'll be along for the ride!
Dragracer Posted March 27, 2012 Author Posted March 27, 2012 Thanks Rom, I did a little work on her yesterday, repainted the valve covers & the rear wheels I have in Tamyia Brillant Blue (go with the new paint scheme a little better), carbon fibered the wheels last night (not easy!LOL!,clear carbon fiber decals, I'll do the valve covers today), so far today I just printed up a few pics for the hood,passenger side & drivers side of the car, in different sizes to get the correct size for the car before I print up my decals, the pics are going to tell the story going from the hood-to-passenger side-to-drivers side, now I'm getting ready to start scratch-building the fuel pump,fuel regulators& the fuel/nitrous solonoids. The Nova & Comet are going to be 2 of my Witches Trilogy, the Nova is going to be the "Mind Witch" & the Comet is going to be the "White Witch", still have to decide on a "Black Witch" car. I'll be [posting some more pics soon.
