Studebaker fuel coupe finished !

[cobraman]

Crazy coupe is done. It was a fun little project that kind of went in a different direction then I had planned. Happens all the time. You plan something and then the project takes on a life of it's own and different ideas good or bad come to mind. Thanks for looking and as always comments both pro or con are welcome.

Wow! That's awesome!

Wow , that was fast ! Love the dragster chassis and the fade job , but you'll have to explain the intake !

That's not an intake. He has no intake opening. That would be my only concern with the design of the car, no air for the fuel injection system.

The "snorkle" stack emerging from the roof is for the middle exhaust headers ... this is a dual engine (side by side) car and that's how Ray solved the dilema of what to do with the center exhausts.

Neat car, Ray!! Unique and nice-looking. Good build!

[Dr. Cranky]

Love it, very cool. Nice colors too.

Thanks. I could not have said it better myself. I was lucky to find a bic type of lighter that was the perfect size after cutting for length.

This turned out great! Now everything fits correctly, for example the wheelbase. Great job on the paint too. Not the easiest type of build to complete, you did it very nicely.

[cobraman]

Thank you Niko.

[slusher]

Really sharp, great paint..

[cobraman]

Thanks Carl.

Man, that's a cool build! I can imagine seeing it in 1:1 scale, with exhaust rumbling outta each of the usual lower-side panels and also coming outta the combined-exhaust stack in the roof... kinda like a vintage steam locomotive. LOL

Especially if you set it up with one of those flamethrower devices in the roof stack!

Very neat concept and execution.

Not only a very cool build, it's SHINY :) too!

[cobraman]

Thanks for the kind words guys.

[Jantrix]

Very cool! And seriously original. Nice work.

Au contraire! The air intake would be those four little stacks on top of the manifold between the superchargers mounted in front of the engines.

That's awesome, good job

Man that would be one hell of a wild sled ride. Nice build Ray. Well done.

[cobraman]

Thank you guys, so glad you like it.
