Sneak Peek of my B-17 themed Hot Rod Truck

[plan_D]

Ju-88 and Bf-110s...

 

[cheddar cheese]

And Do-17/215's and Do-217's...

 

[plan_D]

Sorry, I was including good ones only.

 

[mosquitoman]

He-219s

 

[plan_D]

Still, only good ones. That was ANOTHER "It had potential" model...

Oh yeah, and of course Me-262s...

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yeah that was a purpose built night fighter and would probably have had no trouble turning with Lancasters.

 

[mosquitoman]

The He-219 was good though, it wasn't liked by the top brass

 

[cheddar cheese]

Yeah it was very good.

 

[plan_D]

Wasn't it's engines under-powered?

 

[cheddar cheese]

It can hit 400mph plus, so I shouldnt think so.

 

[DAVIDICUS]

Depending on the version, the engines developed from 1,850 to 2,100 hp. I do understand that it turned out to be rather dissapointing but don't know the reason.

 

[plan_D]

It is well known that the He-219 was a severe disapointment.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

and just because she is a perpose built night-fighter, it doesn't nessisarily mean she'll turn well, and the lanc couldn't really turn inside them, just with them, at a struggle.......

 

[Chocks away!]

Chocks Away...the Iron Crosses are a biker/hot rodder thing. My buddy (who did the grill) had a Iron Cross theme going (grill, taillights, earrings on pinup girl and pinstriping on back of cab)...long story short? Yeah, it was a previous theme!

Motorhead sort of thing huh? 8)

 

[Chocks away!]
