project Behr - reproduction fender cooler
This has been along time coming but we are getting to the end of the project and onto the first prototype. A few of you may remember i eluded to this project around 2 years ago , at the time the technology to produce what i wanted was just there but not main stream enough and to copy the look of a 69-73 S fender cooler required a pattern maker plus $$$$ just to get working drawings ... now with time we have arranged a group of Brainiacs together and moved along via 3d scanning to 3d cad and onto 5 axis cnc to produce the reservoir top and bottom plug to be cast.
These will be cast in lm25 alloy ( used for cylinder heads etc.... with a good atmospheric tolerance (resistance to elements ) ) and welded to a modern core to allow for the best cooling possible .
Now we are not aiming for an exact repo , as that's not possible , but the item will look alot like a original in shape / ribs / connections ...
Feed back please as input at this stage would be good
