RodBurNeR Posted September 16, 2007 Posted September 16, 2007 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. Slotted mags - Bob Dudek 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 Carb linkages and such- Detail Master Dipstick(s) - me Oil Breather cap - Parts by Parks Braided fuel lines and A/N fittings - Pro Tech Turned oil filter cover - Shaw Custom Aluminum Pulley's - can't remember? Header flanges- Detail Master See through radiator shroud- Replicas in Miniature there is much more still to add...... Here is how it's looking so far. Sorry not the best pics, when i build ....i just shoot
RodBurNeR Posted September 17, 2007 Author Posted September 17, 2007 (edited) 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* Edited September 17, 2007 by awbcrazy
RodBurNeR Posted September 18, 2007 Author Posted September 18, 2007 got the spreader bars on. they are aluminum tubing that is polished. i am waiting on master cylinder to try so i can get brake lines done :uh: Hosted on Fotki
Dave Mikrut Posted September 18, 2007 Posted September 18, 2007 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!"
