Yep. Your PM is probably getting blown up right now.

That is so cool. Way better than buying one. Can't wait to see it welded up.
Yup, I'm anxious to see the fit & finish of his weld bead pattern (finition).

Re: Homemade Trick Star tribute
Threads like this inspire me to become a better Machinist and someday a decent Fabricator . This is just excellent . That 67' Vette' is rad , has your friend heard of Box Performance ? Gary build the fastest Drag Vette's around these parts .

Re: Homemade Trick Star tribute
Cool. Very cool.
I wonder if this'll get sold as a genuine Hutch at some point years down the road...not by you but if it ever changes hands etc.

Re: Homemade Trick Star tribute
We have talked about that and he plans on marking or stamping it somehow so that wouldn't happen. If he was trying to pass this off as something it's not I wouldn't have started this thread, I'll probably buy this one anyway. Besides, his welding skills WAY surpass that of original Hutches

A regular pipe bender would kink that pipe. Had to be a mandrel bender with 5/8 die.
