I see that the copper gold oxidized to green.
It's an evolutionary color (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |

Jim just sent me this pic of the transaxle attached to the engine. Little different angle than previously posted.

Close- it appears that car is copper originally. But it shows you were looking and I appreciate that. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

What the heck? I haven’t seen the green hornet driving around the neighborhood yet. Did Kent retire? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif)

I know. I have been waiting a long long time for this phase to wrap up. But from the day Kent got my Six, just over 13 months ago, he has been all over it. It was not on him that it took 61 months for the car to get to him - that was my fault. I have never pressured Kent to get this done by a certain date. This phase of the build is the critical foundation to make the car what I want. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Nice Michael! Love that green! And the detail in the engine transmission build! Wow! My car is nice, but I’d be honored if you’d let me park next to that car at a meet! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif)

I appreciate that a lot. But we are still quite a ways off from me driving it for sure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I appreciate that a lot. But we are still quite a ways off from me driving it for sure. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) I am sorry Sir, but driving that vehicle shall not be allowed on the grounds that a fly spec of dirt might blemish the perfection. Perhaps it would be better Sir to just hand me the keys when it is finished. Please don’t mention it, it will be my pleasure. |

I read this whole thread yesterday afternoon, Kent, your work is first rate and your attention to detail is impressive!
Cairo, way to keep with it! You found the right guy for the job! The only thing I can think is that the gold color is pretty badass. Those 70s colors are making a comeback. My next project may just have to be painted that gold. I think it would look amazing on a flared car! Can't wait to see you driving your car! |
