Mooneyzs Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Art... Like Brad said... I have Hawk Midget on the brain. Hopefully you have been able to get some more bench time in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Laski Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Thanks for the inspiration, fellas, but I'm going to have to take a break on this one for just a little bit while I ready some projects for GSL. It became clear to me that this one isn't going to make it. But keep it on the brain- I'll get back to it as soon as possible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codi Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Sorry to hear this Art but certainly understood. Will certainly follow along when you eventually get back to it. Cheers, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 (edited) Art... I completely uderstand having to put it aside to get projects done for GSL. Just promise to bring this work of art in progress to thr DSC. I am hoping to have the funny done for GSL but have a feeling its gonna be sitting on the under construction projects table... lol guess you can say I didnt plan things out too well.

Art Laski Posted July 24, 2015 Author Share Posted July 24, 2015 Wish I was posting an update, as it's been way too long, but for those of you in Indiana, this car is actually making it's racing return tomorrow night. My brother is getting it back together to run the Tony Stewart Midget Classic at the Indianapolis Speedrome. If you're in Indy, check it out!

gasser59 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 OK Art, I know this one has to be screaming at you from your bench. Love to see you get back on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Laski Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Brad, you're exactly right. It is SCREAMING at me and I'm dying to get back to it. Unfortunately, I have a couple of other projects I need to finish up ahead of time (or somewhat concurrently). But, I just bought some metal to use on the lathe so I can do some of the machine work I need to on this one. Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 This is a remarkable bit of work, Art. I need to try some brass sometime. I may be doing that sooner than I was anticipating.Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 Art... that is the first step.....getting it out of the box and on the bench. I know you will knock it out of the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Art....is this ever going to get back on the front page? I've still got midget on the brain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Laski Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 Man, I hope so, Brad. I really want to get it done for GSL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Laski Posted January 8, 2017 Author Share Posted January 8, 2017 Well, the time has come and I'm finally getting back to this one, and I couldn't be happier about it. Pulling it back out, I found some issues with the front suspension as I was trying to mock it up, so I made those adjustment, but there's really nothing to see there, so I don't have pics of that. The next step is to get the rear suspension fabricated. I made this hokey little jig to get everything lined up, and I'm glad I did, because a few needed adjustments came to light. Anyway, not a lot to see yet, but here a few pics as proof that it's back in action! Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Teresi Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Art.......I`m so very happy for you to get back on this build.......I`m hoping you can get this finished for GSL......it WILL be another show stopper......Congrat`s buddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
