Custom Mike Posted January 1, 2013 Posted January 1, 2013 Bill, I just went through this entire thread, what you have done is unreal on so many levels! If you have those rims cast, I'll definitely grab a couple of sets, and it's too bad you didn't have the engine cast, it is a true work of art! Just when you think you've gotten good at this stuff...I am in awe...what is it that you and Alyn drink out there?
Mooneyzs Posted January 2, 2013 Posted January 2, 2013 Bill....wow those wheels are gorgeous. I am sure they took a lot of time and patience. They are a work of art. I can't wait until the next update.

vintagedragfan Posted January 3, 2013 Author Posted January 3, 2013 I wonder how they'd look on a Model-T ... if you hang a couple turbo's on the T, I'll let you barrow them for a week end
ScrappyJ Posted January 3, 2013 Posted January 3, 2013 Very nice indeed, Bill! You work is second to none.
