Yes, it is the small parts and not that many to do that place them on the "not to do list". Mine require huge boxes and they have to be poured hotter than normal (aluminum) because of the thickness (thin). I'm so happy they are getting done. Most likely my last wings for a while, because I have to finish my Daytona :)

I'm impressed with the work Indygenerallee is doing - incredible talent.

A sad day. Glad you get some time to your own projects now. I've never met you (Mr. Dane) but thank you for your hard work. Many have mentioned your name when it comes to quality parts. Were you to start again, count me in.

Dane, Thanks for the kind words! If my Daytona comes out looking as good as your yellow Daytona I will be smiling ear to ear!!!  :icon_smile_big:

I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.

Ditto on the not fun and looking good.  I remember repair grinding, hand filing, and bringing in the pitches to spec on many a submarine and ship propeller on hot days and having the skin between your toes and other places turn green from sweat, brass, and bronze dust.

Guy's I have every single Daytona piece EXCEPT the A pillar trim, who makes the best fitting ones? And does anyone have a set they would be willing to part with?  :2thumbs:

There are several people making them.

I haven't seen a set yet that I'm impressed with.

I think Larry's parts are OK when he's on his meds. :apimp:

At least one member here had a set of his that didn't look right at all. :eek2:

The top had a big upward bulge to it.

I just can't take the chance he'll get his dosage right. ::)

:scratchchin: i heard the opposite about larry's a moldings  . Larry is a perfectionist with his parts and he guarantee's them .the guy should have sent them back to him . he stands behind hid parts . his sold a lot of them . i dig mine  :Twocents:
