3D scan of the M120 V12 engine with a lot of Gooichi Motors race parts for the shop's GTM120 project. Received the Revopoint Trackit scanner a few months ago to add to our scanner arsenal, complex scans such as this is where it really shines. The complete V12 engine easily fits in our massive 3D printer, allowing us to reproduce the engine in high accuracy from lightweight plastic for engine mock-ups vs. lifting the 550lb V12 in and out several dozen times during the build process.

The vintage Trumpf&Co reciprocating machine we acquired came back to life for the first time in presumably decades. It's still in need of more work to be 100%, but it's now a usable machine!

This was 1 machine of a bunch of stuff we got from an estate sale. Some of the other stuff we picked up was a loaded 1961 Bridgeport milling machine, a 28" pneumatic planishing hammer, shot bags, and some other useful odds and ends!

One of the most dramatic before/after photos I have ever taken. The engine compartment on Charlie's 'Cuda before, looked like in was dragged from the depths of a swamp. Once the tired 318 2 barrel was pulled, it was worse than we thought. Unknown rust was discovered in several areas on the firewall, cowl, and aprons after it was media blasted. The rust was cut out and repaired. The engine compartment was then epoxy primed and sprayed with single stage Chrysler B3 Basin Street Blue. The K-frame and other black components were painted with Steel-It Polyurethane Black.

The 451 Stroker had been a fresh build... 20 years ago. After it was inspected from top to bottom, we added fresh break-in l**e to critical components as the old stuff had long since dripped away. We did a full cosmetic refresh on the engine. Fresh coat of paint, acid cleaning, polishing. The second photo is during the test fitting of some NOS exhaust headers, which have now been media blasted and sprayed with high performance Zybar matte black coating.

2 Fuel Cells designed this week for 2 unique projects. First we start with 3D scans, then design the tanks to fit, then templates or CNC tool paths can be made from the drawings. 1st tank is an aluminum fuel cell insert to hid inside the factory outer shell of a 1963 Corvette Z06 "Tanker" to retain factory appearance but non of the headache of a factory fiberglass tank. The 2nd, a 1965 Mustang Fastback RestoMod with a custom rear defuser and a quarter panel mounted Shelby flip cap. We want to retain a flat trunk floor, mount the cell in the factory location, clear the defuser and increase capacity, now it holds 18 gallons.

Greg's GTO all sealed up in epoxy primer, and the inside is top coated with red oxide urethane. All of the panels are getting the same treatment. The body is already back on the chassis, inside all masked up. Ready to be reassembled for a concourse level body work job.

Charlie's 'Cuda is ready for its 451 stroker swap. It came stock with a 318, 2 barrel. To say the engine compartment was rough would be an understatement and was beyond needing just a little clean up. After pulling the power plant out and removing all the components, we sand blasted it which revealed rust that was unknown. Repaired all the rust, coated the inside of the cowl, epoxy primed the engine bay and sprayed with Plymouth B3 Basin Street Blue.
