Tom, your making progress.

[mustang1989]

Man this is awesome to watch Tom! I once watched someone taking on 6 Fw190's at one time.............................he didn't come near this far! You're doing great buddy!

[tbill]

thanks guys

sadly, only 3 workers, me, myself and i lol, but when the 3 of us feel like working, a lot gets done

and i am quite sure the wife got me that magnet, must of been a friendly reminder, haha.............

[Mopar - D]

Tom your progress is moving along great on all 6 builds.

[tbill]

todays 'bit-o-stuff', had to take some liberties due to space and available stuff, but I like it so far. still have to wire the plugs, and do it all 5 more times, but here is a mock up so far,

stay tuned....

[Mopar - D]

The mock up is looking good

[mustang1989]

I'm liking the extra plumbing there Tom! Nice attention to detail.

where did you get the car paint stands

[tbill]

where did you get the car paint stands

they are Tamiya, i bought two of them on-line thru amazon, and i got one at my local hobby lobby. it's a two stand kit, one for holding the body, and another to hold parts. and they are on a 'turn table', makes life much easier.

[mustang1989]

I may end up getting one of those painting stands. I didn't even notice until it was pointed out. Thanks for the info Tom.

[djmcguire]

I've seen them at Hobby Lobby now and then and if you go online you can get one of their 40% or sometimes 50% off coupons good on one item...

[Brizio]

It looks a factory! Enjoying this build!

[mustang1989]

Tom/Daniel:Got it today! Fortunately I was at the Wichita Falls HL while out of town and not the Corpus Christi location which has nothing. Thanks a million guys!

[tbill]

Joe, do yourself a favor, glue AND tape the top and bottom halves of those stands together as they will come apart at the most inopportune time....ask me how i know.......lol.

[mustang1989]

I'll be giving it a good look over this morning Tom as I'm not at home right now and have nothing else to do since I cant be at my bench . Thanks for the heads up and thanks again for the lead! (I don't know if I want to ask.........................but what happened?)

Don't want to drop a freshly painted body on the ground.

[tbill]

as Oscar said, I was painting or primering something, and it looked sweet, so I kind of tilted it to see if I had good coverage on the rockers, and poof......it came apart and my fresh paint/primer was roof down in my booth........was not happy.......

lesson learned, and passed on, lol.

still need to take my own advice and 'doctor up' the newest one before I have a repeat performance........

and back to the builds at hand, I should have some new pic's tomorrow at some point, I have 3 more engines set up to run wires and make fuel lines for.

stay tuned.....

3 more engines........and I'm having a time with 1. lol

Tom looking forward to seeing your update pictures.

[Brizio]

Love all the update on this build.

[tbill]

thanks guys. have had a bit of a family issue this past week, so no bench time, but I think tomorrow morning I can get into the 'zone' and get something done [i need it for therapy this week.....], hope to have some new pic's of more wired/plumbed big blocks tomorrow. I also got my last color of flocking I had been waiting for, so another interior can get carpeted as well.

thanks again for following along, check in tomorrow for some new pic's

[mustang1989]

Will be checking in tomorrow Tom! Happy New Year man!

[tbill]

ok, new stuff

engine shop was busy today, got 4 about 99% done, will paint the transmissions on all of them aluminum when I am done handling them. got 2 more to run fuel line and plug wires on, but kinda ran out of steam today

so anyway, here is todays progress,

and got the last two interior tubs 'carpeted'

thanks for following along, hope to get more done this coming weekend.

[TFchronos]

Very nice work, I like that picture with all those engines.
