Joe,
Again and again and again everyone is asking for your stuff.. ..It's time for you to stop building for yourself and start a production bussiness..

Don't worry Gino, I was just fixing the faucet over the sink and my legs gave out, hence the sitting. Hope that clears your mental image.

Thanks guys it’s been fun so far.
@ Calvin…I have just about what I need to do an MRAP. Already made up my blue prints and have all my measurements. Only problem I have is getting a set of wheels. The wheels are the only thing I have yet mastered in making.
Happy Modeling,
Joe

Joe,
If you know the rough dia's before any tread or detail I can always turn a doughnut for ya.... you coulds add the tread, then cast it up. I'll have to help ya get all that going too. All ya really need to do is get that paint tank to pressure cast, and I'll give ya a hand making the mods to the tank as well.
I'm headed to the Sabres/Bruins game tonight... and then Up (again) to take the kiddo's shopping tomorrow...

Joe,
this is an awesome job you've already done ! I love the engine as many other members have said it too.
I can't imagine the jewel you'll make with the rest of the interior.
Please keep on posting.

Sorry boys, but since Joe got the big screen television, everythings come to a halt in lieu of NASCAR looking better than ever on the new flatscreen. I'm sure you can all understand that for good reason.
