09ELF Posted 10August, 2016 Report Share Posted 10August, 2016 woah.. i was initially abit skeptical about the purple.Works quiet well.. very racy MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINGY Posted 10August, 2016 Report Share Posted 10August, 2016 I think you have got it perfect, the purple is not over done so it compliments the stripe, well done MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simonk Posted 11August, 2016 Report Share Posted 11August, 2016 I watched this one with my 7yo daughter and she said "Wow, I love the purple". She was then disappointed when you peeled off the tape and most of the purple with it. I think it works really well. I can't wait to see how you tie it in to the rest of the car.

Pork Chops Posted 22August, 2016 Report Share Posted 22August, 2016 I predict a few small setbacks in your next video....Your pain was palpable at circa 7 minutes! In a thousand lifetimes I would not have your patience for the amount of sanding you've done. Keep going, you're doing an awesome job. If I had any of those engine bits I'd gladly donate, so hopefully others who can help, will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFX Posted 22August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 22August, 2016 (edited) I predict a few small setbacks in your next video....Your pain was palpable at circa 7 minutes! In a thousand lifetimes I would not have your patience for the amount of sanding you've done. Keep going, you're doing an awesome job. If I had any of those engine bits I'd gladly donate, so hopefully others who can help, will.Haha, thanks mate. It was only yesterday afternoon, so it still stings a bit. I will get there in the end.I have been busy getting stuck into painting the roll cage and doing the final flow coat of the car this week. Once all of the painting if finished, I will tear down the booth and get stuck into the engine.As for the engine, the guys at Performance Developments in LA have reached out to me and they want to help out with building a special engine for this project, and I need some parts.If anyone has an Aluminium case, later model heads, cam decks or cam covers for a reasonable price, let me know. They can be in the US or Aus (or anywhere in the world for that matter).Thanks guys, here is the video.Jeff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q7nJqncXjq0 Edited 22August, 2016 by MFX Blue964, Chris-p, npvpositive and 8 others 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GUT Posted 23August, 2016 Report Share Posted 23August, 2016 Frustrating!However, practice makes perfect! Every time you need to go back and do something over, the results improve. So, all good!Can't wait for the next episode. MFX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFX Posted 23August, 2016 Author Report Share Posted 23August, 2016 Yes, I agree. I have done a lot of artwork over the years but I have done very little of the clear coats. I am getting much better now with some practice (and slowing down). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUT Posted 23August, 2016 Report Share Posted 23August, 2016 Looks great and the engine sounds like it will be very interesting.
