Pete have you considered taking off the pull start and replace with a nice billet pulley belt start?

Always appreciate the input, that's why we list stuff in the projects section of forums so guys can comment, but just so we are clear, I am not making a shelf piece and I am not building the car for anyone but me and my liking.
The cars I have are cars to use, I want to be able to bring this car anywhere I want and be able to start it up and drive it around, I purposely don't have 15 projects, I want to complete the cars I want 1 at a time and get the job done.
This car didn't need much more then refreshing and I am not looking to reinvent the wheel....

On another note, there are 2 things I hate, one is sprint cars, the other is anything nitro, so I wouldn't consider putting anything other then a gas motor in my cars or I would make an exception for a 3rd generation Conley, but that's it.
I know the Saito is a four stroke, but they look more like an outboard boat motor to me.

This isn't a fancy race car, that's not what I am looking to pro-ject, this car is more of what you would see at a local hotrod car show and that's exactly what I am looking to achieve.
Next project????? 49 Merc ! woohoo

That's cool Pete but as for me I like to achieve realism that's why I'm on the other side of the spectrum of this hobby. I hate the generic stuff built by the top manufacturers of yesterday it's not scale whatsoever as far as the components go so I try to fool the eye with some modification. But that Conely rear you have is amazing!!

Right now I have 4 projects going on and they are in the final stages, well somewhat. I can't stay on just one project because I'll get tired and loose inspiration but that's just me and that's what happened with my 32 ford, I got burnt out, I'll be posting some photos of it soon and my 1960'ish Indy Roadster, this will have a Saito for lack of real estate under the hood. My corvette is done all it needs is a nice paint job. I just finished my 1/14 scale tractor and tanker that i'll show you at WRAM.

Can't wait to see your car Pete when it's done.

Do you know what color code the paint is? Also was it single or two stage?
