Nice gauges. What's the little one on the bottom of the tach, a clock?
I think your parts will start dictating your total design, although I wouldn't use that fish tank, too big for a functional overflow tank!" "No matter where you go, there you are!" Steve.

Thought about it a while.... I am going to continue to work on the track nose. The car needs to shrink a little though to pull it all off.
The cowl will need to be pinched a little to get the lines to work out right (who really needs THAT much foot room anyways?). The nose is gonna get a little smaller and a little lower at the front. Those pretty cam covers are actually going to poke through the hood a little at the front. The door openings are also gonna get smaller (shorter front to back and shallower).
I'm going to try and pack everything into a 100" wheelbase.
The Whippet radiator and MG gauges will go towards dad's T rebuild.There are two things in life where penetration is really important.....and one of them is welding.
The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
