Must have been fun back then putting 27 liter airplane engines in cars.. Each piston is about 327 cubic inches.

Finaly finished after several years off and on.. Had to scratch build the seat from styrene, leather, tiny pins and some fly fishing tube. Scratch built anything made of wood or leather..

Too bad almost all of this will be hidden..if not I could replace over 50 bolts with the real thing..but sadly a full pan hides it all..but I'll pretend it doesn't. Modded..the torque beam so it attaches to the leather damper the way it should.

This looks nerve racking..I've seen this happen before..

I was going to try and make the brake cable chain adjusters but the only chain even close is fusee chain for watches which is very expensive. Stuck with what they give you but added aluminum tube and a nut..then thinned out some electric wire for the cable instead of the solid stuff they give you.

Had to cut apart the gearbox as one side of it is backwards.as shown by the real thing...how they did that is beyond me..ordered some nuts and bolts from model motor car. Looks like i will have to make the torque arm and damper..as its somewhat wrong....getting ready for primer..

These are incredible...looks real. One day maybe I'll attempt one..but i would need the years of doing this you have to even start it..

Never seen one of these...

After finishing the Mephistophelese..we'll almost..still making the seat..I started on this. Starting to figure out how to correct things..The shop manual arrives today so that should help. The gear box needs work to correct. Some things are in the wrong place..plus I may add real nuts and bolts..and make the torque arm attachment. That's the red thing..I believe its made of leather plates. They also have the torque arm attaching to the frame which is wrong. Probably have to scratch build a whole new arm. So it begins..
