Dave, Does that 1;1 car say Rock island on it? and on the hood, is that Silvis or Silvi's? This is a need to know, if it does, that car is from my Hometown!

I think the new hood sponsor is pretty cool.

Please go to Helen Waite, our sponsorship manager for payment.

Coming along great Dave. I like your chassis design with the motor slung low. They need that wieght low because of the high bodies. Did you make the motor bracket? BTW I saw that on the car too I'm originaly from that area also. Jim

Dave, I think the chassis looks great!

I really like the idea of making a car based on a real one.

Looks great already! I'm finding the same thing; takes you some time to get about 90% done, then it takes the same amount of time to get the last 10% done....... details......!

Man, I love watching Dave on a building frenzy. Creative, solid, and they look like fun! When I get back on form, I'm gonna drive people crazy getting me bodies. Chevys from Bob, Fords from Dave, and I have my eye on some of Ray's goodies, too.
