Know what you mean by the dumpster ---When Nye Frank was doing the frontend axle fairing for our rear engine dragster he make a piece for one side and then made 4 more like it---well they didn't fit so he tossed them so then made 2 pieces and duplicated them--didn't fit so dumpster---by the time I stopped off to see how it was going he was pretty much half way thru his carton of tipperellos (menthol cigars) and I pointed out that the axle was offset he had done about every combo of trying to build it with same pattern right and left--he said at least the first piece was right and only had to make 3 more different ones----at least when they did the front wheel fairings they made a scaled down version off the land speed record car--made a buck, did 4 panels and then oil canned (popped curve backwards) them and welded edges together
Sure miss him and Quincy!!!
