Oh My!!! Dave that chassis is Killer!! I see you also have gotten the seat bucket fabricated as well and its gotten carbon fiber on it. Man is that nice. I have to say that I am drooling over the shot with the motor in it. Man the detail to the carbs and linkage are top notch. Nice work!! Its exciting see you making more progress on this Steller build.

scott rick and chris, thank you for the great comments. always appreciated.

the rules require a steel floor under the driver so i cut some .010" brass sheet to the appropriate sizes and soldered in a solid floor.

here are the floor peices.

clean all the surfaces and use a good flux. the solder will travel to the heat and you'll get a decently clean joint.

Dave do you have any shots of your build up of the Bruno Lenco? I want to redo mine, and I want to make it right. I also started doing a Flashpoint 63 Corvette, trying to follow some of what you are doing here. Just is going to take sometime. Thanks Dave again for all your great work and sharing it to help others.

aaron, thanks so much.

mike, i recently suffered a computer crash. i don't know if i lost some of these build photos or they're just hiding. i thought i had them backed up on an external drive but, some of the folders seem to be empty. i can give you some of my reference photos if it helps.

SO GOOD Dave. Super topnotch work. I believe we're out of words for your results. I am very fortunate to have seen two of your cars up close.
