Very nice Steve, but you are going to be catching it from Sue for raiding her craft supplies. :LOL: I thought I was high tech when I drilled and tapped some dice for knobs on my car..........then...

[QUOTE=Bob Parmenter;416820]Well Steve, now you know what's wrong with your becoming such good friends with Pops..............................your thread has now degenerated just like his...

Bob actually had THAT nurse picture???????? Bob???????? OUR Bob?????? :eek: I think I had better contact Unsolved Mysteries........Bob has been abducted by aliens and some clone (with better taste...

Ah, the old "I'm not feeling well honey, put on your nurses outfit" trick. :LOL: You sly dog, you! :cool::LOL:

Don

Hope you are feeling better from the flu bug, Steve. Lots of that going around.

I may have missed it, but what was the purpose of the valve cover to head spacers............rocker clearance?
...

Oh sure, Steve, women just love having engines built in the living room.....don't even ask, just surprise her. It will be even better than Valentines Day! :LOL::LOL: (News flash from the UK. Man...

Ok, that does it..........I'm officially a hack! :o Steve, your touches never cease to amaze me and the rest of us, I'm sure. You aren't planning on running a plain old ignition key, are you? ...

Steve, your gaskets will be in on the 13th, just have to figure out the best way to ship them reasonably and not get all bent up in transit. I don't think there is a flat rate box at the USPO long...

Hey, look at the rest of the car, Pat. I bet if he could figure out how to chrome himself, he would. :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

Don

I'm sure when you chrome those rocker arms the chroming process will take up some clearances. I figure you chromed everything else on the car, why stop now????? :LOL:

Steve, going to stop at NAPA...

I haven't forgotten about the valve cover gaskets, Steve. Monday everything should be reopened after the holiday break, and I'll get them ordered for you.

Don

I thought you had these over in England? :confused::LOL::LOL:Tastes just like chicken.



Don

You aren't considering actually putting messy oil and coolant into that engine, are you Steve??? :eek::LOL: It's too pretty to actually start up. Very nice work, as usual.

I bet having cars...

It dawned on me the other day, Steve, where I saw workmanship and detailing like you, and some others on here, are putting into your cars. It was on a TV program about Jay Leno's Duesenberg...

Looks great, Steve. I see pictures of where some builders leave their chrome parts wrapped up in tape and paper while building their cars..........NOT ME. I'm like a little kid and have to see what...

Yeah, I've heard stories about soft pedal and all with silicone, but that hasn't been my experience. In fact, when I got around to finally restoring my 27 and drained the brake fluid that was in...

Wow...........just WOW, Steve. Really art. I imagine you run silicone brake fluid (as do I) so that pretty finish doesn't get damaged by regular DOT 3 ? And here I am happy when I get a nice bug...

Oh yes, those backing plates were just pathetic before.:rolleyes: :LOL: You remind me of someone I live with who can't ever say something is done. :)

That does look nice though.

Don

Boy do those backing plates look fantastic. :) What size tip do you use to shoot that flake, Steve?

Oh, BTW, we have a little update coming on Dan's RPU.........you might actually get that ride...

Jimmy has posted on Dan's thread on the HAMB, and has always been very complimentary and down to earth. Seems like a super nice guy and he sure builds a great hot rod.

Ken, I know you will enjoy...

We talk all the time while building our own stuff about how we are amazed that professionals, like you are Steve, can charge enough to turn a profit, and yet not so much that a customer won't pay for...

I like it, Steve. Very good way to accomplish latching the doors and raising the windows. When do you find time to do all of this, what with your regular jobs and all? Every post you have made so...

Not you TOO, Steve!! :eek::D Actually, I think I had one like that years ago, Bob and I would go riding together. However, his was a little more streamlined than mine. :LOL:

Don

Shows how much I know about bikes, especially modern ones. :o:D:D

Don

That heater has a nice art deco look to it. What does that motorbike have, and electric cooling fan? When you mentioned that it seemed strange as I would have thought everything on a motor bike...
