    Thanks for the link Steve for the Thames. I have read the first 3 pages and it seems our "Pommie" rodder friends complain about how high you set that damn bar also with your workmanship. Thanks again as I am going to enjoy reading each and every post on that thread as there appears to be some hardcase individuals over there in the UK that also keeps you on your toes. And yes I will let you know what I think of the project,da.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

    The engine & intake look amazing, Steve. I also saved the link to the Thames/Fordson Project and will enjoy going back to see it through, too. Your pictures and descriptions of the initial frame work are first rate - very interesting to see your explanations and approach. Thanks for taking time to post in such detail.

    Many thanks for the kind comments, There are obviously many different ways to do stuff and this is what works for me, glad you like it.

    I post as much detail as possible as there are a lot of people trying to build rods here in england that don't have experience or know how, hopefully i can help them with tips and enthusiasm.

    If i thought there were people interested i would start a thread for the build here.

    Count me in on the interested people. Hard to find words to describe your builds.

    Wow Steve fantastic looking engine block and intake! Attention to details really shows, time spent worth the return 100 fold. Wish I had your patience and skill!

    Greetings Steve, have read all 32 pages and wow, your workmanship is amazing and I too appreciate your ability to give a excellent description of how you accomplish things and so ready to help others. You are a true gentleman. I had not realised one could purchase a complete Thames fibreglass body over there and they look so good. Hey I also noticed that I'm not the first to commend on the ash tray either. Over here in NZ the government has raised the price of smokes to try and get more people to give up by increasing the tax take. Luckily for me I only took up smoking in my early 20's and then quit after 3 years so I am one of those loud reformed smokers that enjoy preaching to others.
    I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.
