    I’ve been all over this car every time it was at a show I was at. Amazing craftsmanship. One of my all time favorites.

    I believe the calculation shown was to determine if the belts would have enough wrap (not slip) on the pulley they designed when adding the supercharger.

    That rear nerf bar is better than morning wood!

    Russ is one of my all time local hot rod heroes, incredibly talented and a great guy. He actually built the hood for my 33 coupe.

    Iv never seen anybody predetermine the movement of stainless steel before it’s been welded.

    Are you Pete from the Alter Boys? I may bring one of the cars to the upcoming TyRods show. He’s doing as well as it can be given the circumstances.

    One of the members asked me if I could scan all the documents I have regarding the S.Co.T. Blower. They seems to be extensive calculations of some kind. I’m pretty sure he didn’t do these but maybe someone did it for him or he got them from someone. Also a cross section of the blower, in Italian and translated. Anyway, thought some of you may find all the details interesting.

    It’s a high quality PDF, about 150Mb. You can download the file here.

    Trying to bring the 29 but had a problem with it and won’t start. Maybe clogged fuel pump. Will troubleshoot this Saturday.
