Chariots of Fire Posted May 12, 2015 Author Posted May 12, 2015 And work continues. The main portion of the plumbing and rotary pump that is powered by the Wisconsin V-4 are nearly complete. Still needed are the lines to connect to the booster reels. Hard suction lines are made of plastic tubing wrapped in masking tape and painted with Floquil weathered black. Couplings are aluminum tubing. The small steps are made from aluminum sheet stock and aluminum foil embossed over a piece of plastic treadplate. This give the impression of a thin piece of treadplate rather than the thick section if plastic treadplate was used directly. The ladder is temporary. Still to be made are a wood 2 section ladder and a separate roof ladder. The tiedown still has to be made.
Casey Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I've run out of good things to say about your builds, Charles, as they never disappoint. Beautiful work as usual.
Kenny B Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 Charles, Very nice build. It reminds me of my grandpas old ford he had on the farm back when I was a kid. I would go with him into town with a truck load of grain. Ken.
