  1. Great work. I hope he makes the dead line. I would love to see it cruising the nats.

    Really really nice!

    I think it would be even better painted like the Weezner artwork, but I can also understand not wanting to paint all that bitchin' aluminum work.

    Top notch stuff.

    Impressive! (The only word I could think of and it doesn't do his work justice!)
     
  11. Very nice, you are fortunate to have such a talented pal.

    Like Zach said, what Yoder parts does he sell?!

    Your friend wouldn't happen to be Jim Hervatin would it? If so, he is indeed an amazing fellow. He built that double ended Yoder by himself incorproating many improvements along the way. I'll not post his contact information as per your statement about getting his approval first.
    All of us have made some simple tool or modified one for a particular job but how many have started from scratch and build a machine that can rival this one.
    Be sure to keep this thread going and updated. Like others, I'm sitting on the edge of my seat to get more details.

    Holy crap that is slick as snot ... to have access to those tools and that talent... jealous.
    I understand not wanting to paint, but has anyone ever considered anodizing the aluminum with a nice green? It would look fantastic and REALLY show off the metalwork to boot... I just don't know how cost effective it would be, but that's what I'm thinking.
     
  18. holy shit that is awesome.

    Craftsmanship on the car, AND the tools used to build it.

    Very humbling indeed.

    The HAMB is cool, but these threads are RARE!

    Awesome SKILL (TALENT implies a natural GIFT), great concept. I love the idea of an aluminum skinned trad. Ford body.....cool!!
