well you see i got two and they are comin for you......................

Any chance you'd part with one?  



I made a ton of progress on my new one today.  Haven't even touched it until today, just had an idea of what I wanted as an end result.  After a bit of brainstorming I just grabbed the closest power tools and started cutting stuff.  So far everything has just fallen together and stuff is working out on the first try.     Hope it keeps up.  This thing's gonna be frickin' awesome if I can pull it off.

Almost got 'er done.  Here's a preview:

Hmmm, link appears to be broken, you should try again.

Made good progress on the valve cover today.. Not sure if I'll have it there in race form, but it will be there to show off at least!

got front wheels for it.  now I need to figure something out for the rears.. may have to drill holes in it "temporarily"..  eek

wont be painted I've decided, because if I painted it, I'd have to strip it down again.. Air compressor broke down @ the ranch this weekend, so I couldn't finish. its basically there though

Also.. Trophy has been created and is all set to go. Question: Do we have access to a scale?


Thinking ahead for future races, if this catches on big time (w/ the public).. Would it make sense to have weight classes?

masons have a scale and eye(like a pirate) just picked one up from boomer

sweet!!!

If you're gonna be in last place on the track, you might as well look good, right?  Pretty sure that's where I'll be chillin'.

Got front wheels figured out, will be hittin the hardware store tomorrow. gotta cobble somethin together for some rears. At least gonna try making it roll-able!!

Got my beast 95% wrapped up tonight.  Also had to throw one together for the woman quick-like, so that cut into my "fine" tuning time. 

Mine rolls, but it ain't pretty...

Did you forget I have access to the forum now?! I'll give you a fine tuning!

P.S. Do we have a best in show award this year?

Sorry, no best in show. Just quickest cover. I didn't have time to make another.. If time permits tonight, maybe I can whip somethin up.
