Hey Guys,
Thanks on the MCM PHOTO. John, Yeah Iv'e noticed on your latest builds the added detail; when I look at your early builds compared to your latest there is a difference, that rocket funny car is outrages (thats my favorite build from your collection) Jeez it's scary with your painting talent and now the detail LOL.
Hizoot, Yeah I thought about that, The only color photo I have appears to show it black so thats what I did (it's a netrual color anyway). It's too late anyway I already painted the block Ford Blue I think it will be alright. Hey guess what, this car has a starter motor mounted to the bell housing, I was suprised to see that.

If this car was being built for you, this is what it would look like.  |

Hey Now, Up date on the Sidewinder, Finally got the headers on; the ones in between the X-bracing had to be redone for the third time once I tried the 2nd set; they hit the brace (knew I should of waited till I had the engine block installed, Oh well....) This allowed me to install valve covers, plugs and wiring, top half of the engine. I could now also install blower belt cover, water lines, and fuel pump and to start explosives plumbing, Just need main fuel line for that. Enjoy. Bob  |

Thanks DJ, I think if you came by to watch me you would get bored to death, sometimes it takes me days to figure something out; then sometimes I build something and get lucky & it works, alot of that happen to me on this build. Does that ever happen to anybody else? ( I think that would be a good question to post on this site.)But if you have any questions please feel free to ask,thats how this build got started, I ask alot of people and they helped ethier in parts or advice .
Hizoot,
where do you get your info on Pro Mods? is there a video on it? Thanks Bob
