Dang John, that blower belt looks so real man!!! Does that actually have threads in it??!

Derrick.......no threads........I just painted the outside black and the inside gray.......then I drew some lines on the gray to look like threads......but,I noticed I need to draw a few more lines to match the pulley threads.......thanks. :)

Holy Smokes John... this is sure coming together. Man does that engine look nice and so does all of the bottles. You know I love your work Bud!! I do have to ask you what are you using for the gauge faces on the bottles. It looks great. And what material did you use for this belt. Looking great man. I also love the gaskets under the valve covers. every little detail is there. Sure is getting me motivated to get more done on my Funny Car. I haven't worked on it in almost 2 weeks.

Can't say more, Fantastic.
