Good evening friends and a huge thank you for your comments and kind words ...

The cruising speed is not yet reached, but I still managed to do
some trinkets, all before installing the exhaust.
I talk about all the motor linkages ...
Not easy to photograph, and you'll have a good look at it:

In the foreground, at the end of the rocker cover, taking account of the towers and flexible, a
vulgar chip of brass!

Transmission gear for gas and wealth controls, bottom left ...

This probe, clearly vacuum, mystery ...

Control wealth, left carburetor:

Like Des said, just like the real thing! I find it difficult at times to decide if you are showing reference photos or the model

Thanks gentlemen!

Well, exhausts are now installed. But it's a very big bird.
On the sun light, Not very good, I do my best...

Next challenge, radiator of course!
Cheers, Dan.

It seems incredible that this is a model it is so realistic. It must be a pretty big model but even so it is simply staggering in the level of detail that you have achieved.

Good to see you back at it, Dan. The engine is a work
of art, words fail me on that one. The radiator looks
gorgeous and it is nice to see how you fashioned it.
Looking forward to the next updates.

Cheers,
Ernie
