Norman,

Your fab work is absolutely fantastic. All of your finished builds are just beautiful.

Sometimes I look at the skill levels on the forum builds and think of them like a baseball team.
You have the major, and minor leagues, and sandlot ball. Mine are in the small town sandlot build category.

these are the aluminum wheels made from 2" solid 6061 round bar stock cut to the depth
of the wheel I want I dressed them up to fit my tires then they were drilled out with a 1 9/16
drill bit then I hand polished them.

I can tell a lot of hours has already gone into this project. Outstanding craftsmanship on this build, way beyond my skill level.
I can't wait to see this finished.

These scratchbuilds are museum/magazine quality, Norman!!!  Now all you need is to figure out how to create the fluid and rubber smells!!!  Just fantastic craftsmanship!!!😎👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏁
