Research continues, and I found some more pictures of original 507 bucks. This one was at the unveiling of the Elvis 507 at the BMW museum in Germany. I befriended a guy that forms cowlings for vintage aircraft at my local airport where I have a hangar, and he's willing to help me when I get stuck and want to turn my creation into a wadded up ball of tinfoil.
I've got my supplies to form the buck this month and will do that when I get back. Also bought a windshield gasket along with a blank few data tags that I need. More later this month!
Cheers
Dave
