Here is yet another Sprint build I have going on my bench at the moment. First off....the chassis is scratch built, and the JEI body, hood, and panels are supplied by Justin Glass, from Southwest Scale Chassis. The decals are supplied by Joe Fuller from Scalesprints.com,..... Joe's decals are the best in the business! The wheels are of course Micro Nitro..... It will be a full detail build like my others.....stay tuned for progress pic! B)

Love those headers, where'd they come from? I haven't seen any races where Donny had chrome finished headers, most of the time they're black, and strangely they're glossy, and looked like a spray can paint job, but a lot of their headers were just wiped down with ATF while clean, then ran until they got hot enough to burn the ATF off, this leaves a coating that will keep them from rusting, and looks almost black but is more of a burnt look, than bare steel.

Keep us posted, this is looking good.

What about the oil tank?.....Dale

If you go to his photobucket site there's a great group of detail photos of final construction, and you can see in better details the machined oil tank, judging from the quality of the rest of his work my guess would be it's his work too.

thanks guys!.......No problem Dale.... the oil tank is machined alum. I have a buddy in Tenn. that makes this stuff for my builds. He's done Tach's....air cleaners... and this oil tank for me. He will be doing a lot of the aluminum parts for my Greg Anderson Summit Pro Stock build.
