Retake that completed shot w/o the late model car in the background and then convert it to black and white, and you have an instant vintage throw back picture worthy of framing.

Outstanding build on that Post Car!

Looking very cool !


"I'm sure there is other things I forgot about. Cost more to build this car than what I figured!"

Take any guesstimate and quadruple it and you'll be closer to actual cost...

My Blueprint Engines 383 does nothing but leak oil from nearly everywhere, very disappointed and regret buying this engine. Can't even drive the car anymore its so bad.

Is it from all the chrome pieces? I have trouble getting anything that has been chromed to seal.

Sorry to hear that. Have you contacted Blueprint ? they seem to have a good reputation and may be willing to help.
Where is the leak(s) coming from ? where did you first notice them ?

As Oldss said, chrome timing covers and oil pans are notorious for leaking as nothing sticks to chrome.
