A pictoric composition...

...or so it looks one of the pics that Natxo has taken 12/11/2006. It seems as a still life on a canvas! They show the engine block, and more parts of his Go Devil engine, all at his work zone of the warehouse.

Take care! He should go up his ladder to take this special shot. Mmm, call it risk at hobby.


The block number is ETO 2223. Mr. Jim Kilbourne has helped us kindly to identify this engine: " This block is not a replacement block...it is a block that has been rebuilt in France at a base shop established by the ETO during operations on the continent....hence the "ETO" number prefix.... I have posted more info on this subject that can be found with a search. The head is a 1944-45 original MB head...the "W-1" does not relate to date or contract number...it is a Wilson Foundy code for pattern/mold room." Thanks, Jim!

Frontal axle finished

Hi, ladies and gentlemen, kats & kittens!

These first days of November, Natxo has managed to sandblast and prime the frontal axle just in 2 1/2 hours only. Non comments!!!

Check specially the detail shots with the "F" logo from Ford at the axle. Cool!
