The Cameraman Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Morning Pierre, yet more proof of your stunning work. In one aspect I'm looking forward to the completion of this wonderful project, yet in an other way I'll miss the updates. I know I shouldn't ask but I will. What's the next project going to be?

Scalephantomphixer Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 I have no clue yet about my next project. That is still too far away... :) Engine no1 is nearly finished. Missing are the exhaust and the engine support plate. Valves, magnetos, spark plugs, wiring, hardly anything is missing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
