Ack Attack Construction Pictures...
« on: November 16, 2005, 05:02:10 PM »
   

Mike Acatiff sent me a couple CD's with pictures of the construction the the Ack Attack motorcycle streamline.  Lots of pictures.  He has given me permission to share them with the land-racing community.

I can't put all of them up on my site, but I've started to put a number of them up.  I have a couple pages worth now and will add more in about 1 1/2 weeks when I get back from Missouri.

The workmanship on this liner is exceptional and Mike has used some really innovative ideas in his design and construction.

I wish them the best in Australia this coming spring.

You can get to the pictures by the link on my construction pages (use the link at the end of this post).

Enjoy and c ya,

Sum

I always enjoy the " bare bones " build pics. Some fine fabrication and imagineering going on there, I'm impressed. Thanks for sharing.

It's been so long since I have heard from Sum that he must owe me some money.

I'll reup the contract if he just contacts me.
