Great Job!! Does the minature Pete Jackson gear drive give you scale 'whine' when the engine runs?
Saw a youtube last week where a guy built a running flathead V-8 and the built a scaled "T" bucket to house the engine, vid shows him driving it around the Cul-De-sac :wink:

Beautiful machine work on that one.

Back in the seventies there was an article in a modeling magazine about a fellow building a Curtiss Conqueror in about the same scale. His idea was to build a P-6E to house it, with the possibility of making it airworthy. From my sketchy memory of the article, his big hang up was the cooling system. Does anyone know if the project was ever completed?
