Any progress with the builds yet guys ? ..... I finally came up with a paint scheme for one of my builds, it was giving me a bit of headache, trying to decide on a plan & go with it ....... I think it worked out not too bad; I'll post as soon as it's done ..... AND .... my Uncertain Trike 2, is ready to polish & assemble; I guess I'll post it here, instead of in the regular section ... I wasn't going to, but I figure; why not ..... this Challenge is just for fun & inspiration anyways

I've built full size bikes quicker than this damn drag bike! I wanted an SU carb on it and one from the old 1/8 E type jag looked the part. So now I'm making up mounting brackets, manifolds, throttle cable mechanisms, a giant bell mouth, return springs etc - and this is just the frikkin' carb! It's still fun though guys? Guys?

OK, had a big push at the weekend and the engine (but not carb!), frame, wheels and tyres are done, the front forks are 90% there, the tanks and rear fender are primed so we're heading in the right direction again.
Oh, and I started another build based (very loosely) around a Revell chop. When was that deadline?
And what's with Kettle Kettle getting mugged? That doesn't sound like my idea of a fun night out.

I'm planning on nailing most of the detail work this weekend, unless the weather stays as good as it is in which case I'll be putting in some miles around the island. Or painting the fence if I get nabbed by the other half on my way out.....
