aileronThanks for the compliments on the Bullitt and shop!
The 40x60 shop was recently completed, so it's mostly empty and will take a while to get it outfitted for fun. The B-25 hanging up is a very old Royal kit that my father built before passing away. He taxied it, but never flew it. I want to fly it but know where ALL radio control planes eventually end up, so I've decided to simply enjoy it while in the shop and remember Dad.
Right now the Bullitt is getting a set of KW coilovers, and some Steeda goodies. Roush hasn't released their blower for the Bullitt yet, but I'm hoping it's soon and will make a good winter project.
This car is fun! I don't remember ever being so tickled with a new ride - it's sure not built like our BMW's, but it definitely puts a smile on my face.

It's a very nice car. It sucks you took delivery of it right before winter. The new mustangs are an animal with a blower and some bolt ons. You should have lots of fun with it.
As for the plane, I wouldn't fly it. If you're dead set on that, build an identical one and fly it cause if you crashed your dad's, you'd never forgive yourself.

acidjazzGorgeous! Congrats on the new car!
I can't believe how well built the new muscle cars are.
Imagine what, 475 horsepower and all those features with a warranty?

aileron, would you be so kind as to provide an update on your Bullitt? I’m very close to purchasing a very clean 2019 with <5K miles.

BOATTRASH1WOW. Just caught up to this thread!
Beautiful car and awesome shop.
Did your dad fly B-25’s?
My dad had some B-25 time in Australia, New Guinea and over Rabaul....
