The motor is finally finished. Tedious, and I'm happy it's done.
All that's left to do on this car is seat belts, and hook up the motor to the tank.
Thanks for looking, Mike..

Thanks guys, I really appreciate the positive feedback, makes me proud.
Just yesterday I saw some new seat belt hardware that looks terrific, I'll be ordering a couple of sets ASAP. Meanwhile, I'm with hooking up fuel lines and that's it. Front end is finished, just needs to be bolted on.
This injection deal, or better ordeal was intensive, and without fellows on the HAMB it may not have come out like this, I'm kind of surprised too at how it developed, but had a clue it might be special. I like it.
Much appreciated, Mike..

Done!
With great pleasure I'd like to present the Vintage FED, bare bones and shiny. No decals, no paint. A true scale 150" wheelbase.
Seat belt buckles had to be ordered from ProTech, Charlie has outstanding 5 point buckles, they'll arrive later on in May. When they're installed, a few issues will be touched up and a light box session will ensue. For now though, just had to get this rig on the shelf, next to The Old Master...I like.
Many thanks to all for your ongoing support and enthusiasm, very much appreciated.
Mike..

It's a masterpiece, man.
It belongs in the Louvre.

Hard evidence that 150" is the Golden Mean in FEDs. This deserves to be preserved in baremetal. The injectors are indeed Special. And the low cowl option is the finishing touch (legs under? - hard to tell).
