CSX 3360 At Palo Alto Concours 2011

[Jim Maxwell]

Poor Scott, He's gotten whipsawed by a tornado he didn't see or hear coming!

Scott, You did a magnificent job on CSX 3360, from what I can see from these and other photos and You-Tube videos of the first start-up--those are wonderful!

Thanks for noticing the original Trico windshield washer bottle, which I also supplied to Canepa Design. However, that wasn't on loan. I was fairly compensated with other original 427 and 289 Cobra parts in trade for that device.

For those that didn't read the entire other thread, I did get my parts back per our agreement, albeit a tad later than I expected.
Scott's team created a fabulous replica handle of the original screwdriver.

Scott, please tell me how you created that handle and the paint and how did you make the grooves in the handle after it had been painted without chipping the paint???

I have access to a couple of original screwdrivers and will be making the ferrules. I have created an exact replica of the handle as well. Your reproduction ferrule is a little off, but very nice.
I am looking at more flexible BDS decals for the screwdriver. The ones I made don't handle the curves of the handle very well.

For those that followed the previous thread, I want folks to know that Scott had nothing that I know of to do with the delays. Thanks for sharing the photos. Congratulations to you and Bruce for the win at the show. Well deserved!

How did you finish the Sunbursts and the knockoffs? My steel knockoffs rust within minutes of washing them, turning a nice oxidized gold (or brown if you want to be plain about it....)
