Feel free, it's all in fun anyway !

Not sure Mike . I've never done good with Rum but Te kill Ya is Hispanic and always makes for interesting conversations

According to the Rhino, rum issues are usually caused by bad ice. :drunk

Needing another vacation from boring retirement Chris?

Well Bob I prefer to say that the remodeling was pretty tough on my back and after three visit to the Chyropractor we decided ot head South for some salt air breeze and some awsome Cuban food.....Maybe it will speed the healing and if not it will still be good for the soul :drool

Cheers, Christian B)

hmm...Tampa? Southern Florida?

Dang why didn't I think of that for my convalescence. I'd point more toward some blackwater marsh where there's nothing to do but read Pat Conroy (before the bugs come out of hibernation.)

Interesting ......

Lisa had this famous Cuban restaurant scoped out but alas there were no seating available for the day so we hit the roulette wheel on the Garmin and stopped at the Colombian restaurant ( that serves Cuban ).
Had our favorite and I must say it made he Marietta place seem like McDonald's ( and you know it's good ).

Anyhow, very loose plans for the week : Ringling's museum , Big cat rescue , Bush gardens and a scenic .All weather permitting. Of course sand and more eating : :frantic Might visit MacDill AFB ? ? ?

Cheers, Cheers, Christian B)

Hello all ! Last week was fun but this week has been busy

I have been quietly tinkering with this though .

Getting rid of the ejector marks has also caused damage to the cockpit bracing , so I decided to build it back up.

The mounts for the floors had to be made from scratch.

Then I painted everything black followed by dry brushing the silver.

I detailed the instrument panels and installed them :vmad I am to the point where I am convinced that instaling the panels is the most annoying of the builds

Notice that the only controls are in the back seat. I guess the front guy only had to look for trouble :coolio

Well, does not look much different but those pesky judges with the flashlights will have something to nag about.

Well, let's see if I can't fake some sort of engine to stick in the hole . It looks funny empty

Thanks for looking . Cheers, Christian B)

Great good luck ..... ldguy

 

[Iron Mike]

It can't go vroom vroom with an empty nose. Maybe that was the front guy's job?

Looking good so far.

 

[moon puppy]

Guy up front was peddling.

I agree with you Chris, the IPs on the B10 just seem to float in space, no location points at all.

and to make it even more annoying :vmad , they need to be installed before closing it up . If they actually fit :fencing .

These both necessitated avid use of a dremel tool

Had more time today , so I built an engine . Sort of :hmmm

Anyhow; the part that might be seen :coolio

This is how it started .

next, I salvaged some jugs from an old engine.

Installed some cylinders valve covers and push rod tubes .

The complete engine, viewed upside down . It's an inverted V-8

Now, I need to figure how to install it .

Hope this was not too boring . Cheers, Christian B)

 

[Iron Mike]

Boring??? Not at all, in fact that one goes to 11!!!!!!!!!!! :drinks

 

[phantom II]

And here I thought it would be 8 or 16............Actually, I never though that old MPC Helldiver engine would ever be of any use

Cheers, Christian B)

 

[moon puppy]

So why are you scratch building the engine, can it be seen under the cowl?
