Doctordarryl Posted February 17, 2014 Author Posted February 17, 2014 Finally finished the engine. It is now plumbed and I finished the injector linkage as well. I made a shop rag to stuff into the injector scoop (as I saw in a B&W picture of the front of the dragster). I will post some images of the dragster without the coupe body when I finish it later this week. The decals are selling very well on eBay. Enjoy.
skymnky721 Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 awsome,,love the coors cans over the headers
RatRod Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 Looks great Darryl, I too like the cans on the headers.
Doctordarryl Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 Here is a picture of the Coors cans. I made them using a MicroMark Chopper, Evergreen styrene tube, and a MicroMark punch set with 0.01 inch thick Evergreen styrene sheet. They were assembled with IPS Weld-On #4 and sprayed with Tamiya Silver Leaf. The beer can labels are decals I made using Coors literature to generate the art work. If there is enough interest I may offer the Coors can decals (9 per sheet) for sale.

Doctordarryl Posted February 22, 2014 Author Posted February 22, 2014 Here are some pictures of the finished chassis with the dragster body but not the Bantam body. The engine has been wired and plumbed. The tach and gauges were wired as well. There is also a picture of the scratch built push bar made from Evergreen styrene rod, tube, and sheet and finished with Alclad 2 Chrome over Testor's gloss black. I have pictures of the finished assembled model in the Under Glass forum (where I was told to put finished models regardless of what they are - I won't be surprised if it is moved back here to Drag Race models but so be it). Go to the Under Glass Forum for the finished photos of my Al Bergler's Aggravation A/C coupe dragster model.
