    Just awesome! Reminiscent of when Hot Rod and Popular Hotrodding would have engines on their magazine cover.
    I vote M 22 Rock crusher for the whine alone in a Hot Rod.

    Well durn your hide. I was contemplating this with my Model A. Talked to Tony at the Roundup. Super nice guy and very generous with his knowledge and advise. Now you post those pics, and it's like a sign from God. Someone buy my Nailhead so I can build my Rocket..

    This picture was taken about a year ago, since then John's mounted the headlights installed the window glass, steering, a lot of little things. He's pulled the mock up block out and is putting the interior in and building the trunk panels.

    That is one beautiful engine. I'm very jealous. One problem, that is my annual income sitting there.
