Custom Air Cleaners

Country flag
Offline
A while back I made some custom MG Midget air cleaner housings. I decided to try and swap out the MG and Midget logos for an Austin Healey and Sprite logos. The AH crest was too labor intensive to convert, so I opted for the Healey Wings. The end result was OK, but needs some tweaking.

Anyway, I'm going to make revisions and make a few more sets, but I am offering this first set for sale at pretty much break even cost. See the advert here:

Very nice! Now if I only had SU's to put them on rather than that darn Weber DGV

Thanks. They are machined, then filled with colored resin.

I thought so. You have a cnc mill at the house? Machinist by trade?

I'm a mathematician. However, I dabble in many things. I have a cheap chinese made mill that has been converted to CNC. I actually do some prototyping work for different people. I also do some computer graphics work (not art). I found a place to get some cheap aluminum off-cuts. Mix it all together and this is what you get when I have spare time.

Uhhhh, if she didn't say anything about the car being in there I doubt she'll have a problem with it. :jester:

Trev, those look nice.

Jim I sent you a PM with my contact info.
Maybe you could have them shipped to your mistress's apartment. :devilgrin:

Careful, if she ever comes here she might think something is actually happening. Trev, you might wind up with a room mate!

Jim's wife probably knows that Bugsy would let him have a mistress. :smile:

Well if I did have one and she found out it would be more than the skillet taken to the side of my head.She tolerates me playing with Bugsy. That's about it. But she is the real deal, beauty and brains.
