    Or the weld on Quickchange covers speedway sells. Some of the dumbest **** ever dreamed up but somebody's gotta be buying it.
    Back to the OP. Phenomenal workmanship and excecution. I've got a 40 ton Scotchman ironworker that we've rigged up all kinds of jigs to emboss, imprint into metal. Last run was a batch of church keys.

    I understand wanting to cover up your small block chivy,but a sheep in wolves clothing,is still a sheep.

    Just wait till some doorknob at a show begins telling you he had those on his Plymouth too. Yep, a doorknob. They are pretty, just like jewelery! I am Butch/56sedandelivery.
