Even though its a 1.24 model kit engine thats going into a 53' Studebaker its still BADASS!

Its from an old AMT Kit called 'Double Whammy" I did the wirs/boots, coil and wire and all fuel lines. Tonight it gets the handmade linkage and springs. I just had to share this. Its too cool.

Was this the one you were taking about buying when I was out there?
