Hey all, i posted on the old forum when i was starting this project. It's been in progress for something like a year i think.

This is definately the most detailed and last one at this extent i have done. There is still much to do, but i have completed the engine and am

gaining on it each day!

I can't begin to tell you what has been done at this point, but there is a lot of parts added and some modifications made. There are bolts holding valve covers

on , tranny pan, differential cover, alternator and bracket and more.

Parts list is long, very long and not everything is on yet, but i will try to list it all here.

Valve covers -Bob Dudek

Tranny pan - Bob Dudek

Differential cover- Bob Dudek

Hex head bolts - RB Motion

Distributor- Replicas in Miniature

Air cleaner - Parts by Parks

Drilled drop axle- Bob Dudek

Finned Buick brake drums - Bob Dudek

Functioning coil over shocks- RB Motion

Functional hair pins- Bob Dudek

Braided fuel lines and A/N fittings - Pro Tech

Turned oil filter cover - Shaw Custom Aluminum

Pulley's - can't remember?

Tonight i got the exhaust on with the tips. is painted with model masters metalizer "stainless steel".

the rear axle i got the differential cover mounted. each bolt head is a machined bolt by RB Motion and the cover was made by Bob Dudek.

the axle is just mocked up right there. i need to get the K member on and master cylinder so i can run the brake lines. once that is done, i will be able to mount the

rear axle and the shocks. enjoy!

*once again, sorry bad lighting on this desk*

This is going to be one beautiful Deuce. That engine looks ready to rumble. Bob Dudek's parts are incredible and make any model so much more realistic. I've had the pleasure of owning some of his works and sometimes would just sit and stare at how intricate they are. I have a set of his slotted mags on a current project I'm working on and I get an occasional attaboy about the model, and lotsa "Hey where'd you get them wheels!"

thank you for your nice reply! i have seen at least 150 views on this build and you are first, so thanks for breaking the ice haha!

yes Bob's parts are just insane! i dont know which set of slots you have, but the ones on this build are just awesome! i have another set of them, deeper in the rear too.
