Dave, I guess I realized it before, but you're an artist. That thing looks amazing, just like the rest of your work.

More inspiration (like Dave needs it).

Hey Mike! I took in a 1977 Chevy truck for the son-in-law of the guy I did the 52 Ford truck for since apparently, I’m the only one that would even attempt to humor him with a rust repair and paint quote.
Didn’t want to bore everyone with that, so I’ve had to push the 507 back. But good news! I did get some metal and will resume forming the body at the beginning of the year. Oh, and I’m crisscrossing the country lately looking for Stinsons. I did my tail wheel checkout a couple weeks ago in a 108-3, 220hp rocket and now I want one! After all, if owning a twin is cheap, throwing in a plane made in 1947 with a Franklin engine should make even more financial sense! Cheers Dave |

I figured he was waiting until he was done to post. Could it be that something else has been taking time away from this project?

Happy New Year guys! Yes, there’s been distractions and delays due to me helping everyone out with their projects, but I’m hoping to start back in on the 507 sometime next month. I took in a 77 K10 and got that done, next up is a 76 Scout (possibly), and in between that I’ve been painting airplane parts for a few guys. Seems one skill set transfers extremely easily from one street to a completely different avenue!
I’ve been collecting more parts and may have a lead on some real 507 bumpers along with a couple other small parts. I’m going to start metal shaping the body shortly and will be buying my donor chassis in about a month. I really need to stop helping guys out and concentrate on my stuff, but I can’t say no. It’s a great feeling to help someone who would otherwise be stuck in bodyshop purgatory. Fear Not! This thread isn’t Dead! Just delayed a bit but updates to follow! Cheers Dave |
