RE: SIDE MECH GOOD ENOUGH? Hell no!!!
I like it, I like it a lot. Great work Mark. As the critic I am I do have to add my 2 cents. Everything excet the rad hose ends and the water neck look great. Redo that end and I think you'll have a winner. Clever use of "of the shelve" parts. I was thinking about using header flanges too. Thanks Mark and hey nice Pudding!!!

RE: SIDE MECH Way better than the fiberglass side mechanics.... way better.

RE: SIDE MECH THEY ARE REALLY BOLTED TOGETHER ITS THREE PIECES I SCULPTED THEM AND CAST THEM MY SELF(THE ALUMN I HAD WATER JETTED DID NOT LOOK RIGHT AFTER I PUT THEM TOGETHER)..AS FOR THE LEFT END I USED THE WATER NECK BECAUSE OF AVAILIBILTY THE TWO INTO ONE PIECE I DIDNT WANT TO SPEND THE TIME TO SCULPT ANOTHER ONE IT TAKES TO MUCH TIME AWAY FROM DRINKING RIGHT NOW MAYBE LATER

RE: SIDE MECH For sure the proof is in the pudding. Mark, What material did you cast your sculpt in? Did you actually cast the parts yourself of have a foundry do it? (if they are metal) The bolted up components look to be aluminum. Is it fiberglass dusted with aluminum??? You did an awesome job, just trying to figure out how exactly you casted the parts. Thanks for the info & the excellent work! I don't have a batmobile, but I have a remote R2-D2 www.c4-designs.com/ciii

RE: SIDE MECH What?? Are u guys freaking blind?? It's way off. It may look similar but if you look closely at jack's pic you can see it's nothing like the real thing.

RE: SIDE MECH Well I think the bathtub facuet handle should be replaced with a propant tank handle. The tub handle is WAY off. A propane tank handle is closer. Otherwise I'm pretty cool with it. I don't have a batmobile, but I have a remote R2-D2 www.c4-designs.com/ciii

RE: SIDE MECH "what does a propane tank handle look like" i don't have a photo, but go out to your grill and look at the on/off valve on your propane tank. the one on my tank looks JUST LIKE the one on the actual 89 side mechanics.

RE: SIDE MECH Awesome looking side details Mark! I think that Mr. Wright would probably like the mech a little better if he saw them mounted on the car. MT has them laying flat on the floor at the time the pics were taken, shown out of context, they look a little "wonky" but you have to have a little foresight to imagine what they'll look like completed. -Brin |

RE: SIDE MECH I did some research and there are two mandated tpes of propane tank (OPD valve)handles. (Go government). The first has three points to it and the old style has 5. both have screws in the middle though that hold them on - so they wouldn't work for the side mechanics. I'm not saying there isn;t another type that's more accurate; just that the majority won;t work. _______________________________________________ When I die, I want to die like my grandfather, who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car. |
