I just built a Baby Barnstormer powered with a COX reed valve. Flies great. Fast but great.

I like the pilot, it really fits well and looks realistic.

Post by: Bob Reeves on October 19, 2006, 02:49:56 PM: Ringmasters and Flat Head Fords what more could an old coot ask for..

Once drove a 50 ford 140 miles to get it back to the base with one head in the trunk. Long story but the best part of the trip was pulling into a gas station and seeing the look on the gas jockey when he opened the hood to check the oil.

Love them old flat heads, great looking truck.

Post by: Bill Turner on October 22, 2006, 08:19:42 PM: man are you my kind of guy or what. No not that way.

How can a guy who builds Ringmasters and a great rod be wrong.

Thanks for sharing

And you ought to go the HAMB at www.jalopyjournal.com and read a while. Then introduce yourself and show your ride. They'll love it I guarantee.

Sweet on both accounts
Best to ya

Post by: Phil Coopy on October 24, 2006, 05:46:32 AM: Easy......Just printed it out on regular inkjet paper, cut it out, and stuck it on with dope then went over it with a few brushed coats before putting on the finishing coats to the fuse.

Bring the truck to your fly-in next month. I would like a closer look and I suspect other folks would also. Nice looking Ring. Hope to see it at the fly-in also.
