    Nice sound and motor looks pretty steady, not a lot of shake to it! Good job, hats off! G

    Marcus, can you now ID the water pump pulley you used? Can anyone else? I sure would like to get my hands on one for my project. Regards, Ron

    The above shot is the best do, far: angle, lighting, color. Freaking wicked looking, nicely, tastefully done Hot Rod. Nothing here is passe', over done, or contrived. The awards should continue.

  8. I can't really add anything that hasn't already been said...I will say, the new rolling stock makes a huge difference. All the chrome really ties the whole look together. Really dig the double pinner bias tires.

    Car and motor look great, and sounds even better!!

    Marcus, if you wanted, could you get hood sides on, without adding bubbles? I can't quite tell if the heads/valve covers hang out far enough that they would get into sheetmetal if it was there...

    And, yes, it would be a shame to cover up such a beautiful motor!!
