Yes, I've scraped the white body and got a new one blasted. It's much better then the old one but still need som rust taken care of! The new shell wont be painted until the car is tested and working good, it will be a little like the old green one,.. I really liked the attitued of that car :twisted:

I have been thinking about the engine and changed the specs alot, there are parts on order and some will be ordered, I won't tell more until I'm sure what I'm going to do!

There isn't much to show... maybe a pic of the white body?

Sorry about the size. ;)

But before I finish this I have to finish my other ride, it will be a new thread about it when I get something done. I worked 360+h in 7 weeks so it wasn't much time for anything else this summer :(

No farming industry, however I'm pretty sure you are correct in your observation! This is the state that I received it in ;)

Nice pump!
Mine has partnered me for 19 years in several different engines.
...and it is not so large....look. I even squeeze an exhaust in between.
But OK, compared to a single stage, it is BIG.

..and yes I do have an apron closed on top of it.
