    Late to the party finding the banger meet stuff. I am however stoked to own my first banger, a 30 coupe. I was curious to know if there is a benefit of plug wires over the brass spark plug plates? I am excited to be on this journey for sure.

    Did you cast that Winfield intake or is it an original casting?

    No; wooden mold, cope and drag with core for the internal runners.

    As equally thought out & neat in a very different style is his brothers new set, made to clear the fuel pump on his B motor. 733142403.jpg

    What a mess. Tried to do...something. F'ing mess. Just over look. This is the trial go at the front part of the valence. It is a complex bit of misery. This is the first try going from cardboard to steel. IMG_0617.jpeg IMG_0619.jpeg
