Been busy, been awhile but......here's some racers I've started.
Conversion of a Mono Kurtis Roadster into an early 60s pavement sprinter. So far chopped 4 mm from between tha axles (97 scale inches), additional 7-8 mm out of tha tail, 2 cuts, sectioned 3mm. Engine will be (if it waz real) a 292 Ford truck block with a reground 312 forged steel crank and rods, hilborn style fuel injection, scintella vertex mag ( brown top), CAE clutch and in/out box, oughta give tha chubby lovers a wee bit o' heartburn...:(

and ah 1960s Central West Coast 1930 Ford Winged Super-modified. Engine will be 289 hypo, back then Golden Gate Speedway restricted modifieds to a 2 bbl carb...so we ran tha BIGGEST Weber downdrafts we could get. Body & wing is frum J&S, wing in pic is just a mockup, wheels, tires frum Fred's Auto Salvage, frame is combo of Graphitti coupe and elements from GK sprinter, currently making functioning steering outa tha GK front axle......:D
