    Have you thought about a "T" model tank? You can get those new. Looking good so far.:)Good Luck

    Yes I've been looking at those but keep holding out hope that I'll find something old and crusty for it.

    Been a while but have made a little progress, found a cheap tank for it until I can find one I like better. Swapped out the intake because it had one for an 8ba. and my generator wouldn't mount right. I wanted to put the Winfields on it but having trouble figuring out how to mount them. Here's a couple pics. gas tank 001 (640x480).jpg gas tank 004 (640x480).jpg manifolds 001 (640x480).jpg manifolds 003 (640x480).jpg

    That seat looks bonafide aircraft war surplus. It would be cool to know it came from a P-47 or P-51.

    took me a minute to see why the box didn't work, nice job sorting this one out. Looks pretty neat now with the rear spring behind the axle on the stock frame. Cool.

    Still plugging away and making a little progress. Waiting on parts as usual. Got the generator and fan assy. figured out, changed the intake, made some access to the battery from above. Hope to hear it run soon. rad 1 005.JPG rad 1 018.JPG rad 1 018.JPG
