Lew;



Here's the link to the pics for the wheel pants. :



http://picasaweb.google.com/drfredparis/Engine



As you can see from the pics I still have some sanding to do. Also, I 

did not want to sound harsh in my email about the top fairings from 

farings-etc.  I'm sure they make a great product.  I just decided not to 

use them.  I'll take some more pics when I put them back on.   However, 

it was 75 deg here in Paris yesterday and I decided to roll the plane 

out side and put the engine on last night.  Lets see: do I want to sand 

or hang the engine??? 



As for the DRDT dimpler.  Looks great, just make sure you get the good 

spring back dimple dies.  It makes all the difference. 



Couple hints that will help.  Both Tim Olsen and Deems Davis have done a 

great job in documenting pics and mods for most everything.   Check 

there sites out for  pics and tips. 



Regarding the engine cowling:  I decided to use the skybolt along the 

top and sides and use hinges for the lower cowl.  There is a link to 

them on vansairforce.net.  They have the kit all set up for what you 

decide to do.

Hey Fred,



Thanks for the pics!  I've been devouring Tim's site, but only heard 

reference to Deems.  I immediately googled him and found his site -- and 

spent the last half hour surfing!



Paris, France?  This is great ... I just emailed a guy in New Zealand about 

his paint job.  My Step-Mom is from Chauny (between Paris and St. Quentin) 

and they used to go every other summer until my Dad died in 1999.  I toured 

through in 1969 after being discharged from the Army (drafted in '67 - spent 

'68-'69 in Vietnam) so I wasn't too happy with the U.S. and Europe was a 

wonderful place to decompress.



Later, - Lew

Hate to let you down.  Paris, Texas. 



We do have a small Eiffel Tower.
