14.02.2022 Recently completed pattern based on a 1956 fe Holden badge. Me client had it printed and the product was disappointingly useless. Extremely poor detail and surface texture. I was commissioned to give it a crack by hand in timber and tooling board. I’m sure technology could have performed better by spending more money but then doesn’t that defeat the purpose. I get myself some flack sometimes for giving my opinion on technology versus learning to do things by hand and in most situations tech works. Just not this time. #engineeringpatternmaking #castaluminium #oldholden

31.01.2022 Pete’s famous Sidewacker. Still the best side by side dual carb inlet ever. #speedequipment #flatheadford #jalopyracer #justlikegrandpamadeit

24.01.2022 Thanks Ricky, looking good.

20.01.2022 If you want to mount your dual carbs in line or side by side on any 3 bolt inlet, I’ve got you covered. Two into one inline or the unique Sidewacker.

16.01.2022 Today’s foundry pickup. Motorcycle air cleaners to fit Linkert carbs.

13.01.2022 Still plugging away. Thankful for all in the medic system, checkout chicks, coppers ambos and anyone keeping the wheels of the country turning. Stay safe folks.

12.01.2022 Busted out of isolation and made it to the paint shop and didn’t get caught. Plate toppers now in blue, black red or cast finish. Get $20 to me and I’ll get one to you. PayPal, [email protected] , I also take cash, beer, wine etc.

11.01.2022 Got a few gear knobs delivered from the foundry today. They’ll be drilled and tapped 5/16 nf, to suit old Ford, plenty of meat in em if you need a bigger hole. $75 posted in Aus. #oldfordtruck #oldfords #jalopy #speedsters #hotrods

09.01.2022 Trying something different, hope the grandsons like it. Everyone loves a steam engine don’t they. #modelsteam #steampunk #steamwobbler #castmetal hopefully it works.

08.01.2022 Getting closer on the motorcycle air cleaners. Just need to get the mesh right.

08.01.2022 My collection of patterns I’ve made for plaques for Aussie clubs. If you’d like plaques for your club send a msg and we’ll get it done.

05.01.2022 Couple of nice installations using our single air cleaners.

04.01.2022 Vortex dual updraft inlet, owner made bronze bellmouths and our bronze sideplate. Very tasty banger.

03.01.2022 Made a couple more of my bronze Ford banger side plates. Just the cats pyjamas on a banger hot rod or speedster engine. These two means a total of four only in the world . Low Aussie dollar is a bonus for international folk.

03.01.2022 Support the folks down in East Gippsland. Go camping, go fishing, go for a drive, go for a ride, eat something and have a beer.

03.01.2022 Little Ford banger inlet has come out a treat. Still need to try it on a block for a final check though. Next ones will have a boss facing the engine for a vacuum port..

02.01.2022 Initial idea, design, patterns and tooling, casting, machining and polishing all in Australia. Only Aussie owned small businesses help to make Pete’s equipment.

20.12.2021 Had another batch of gear knobs cast. These are what’s available after filling some back orders. Bronze $65 au plus post, aluminium $45 plus.

03.12.2021 First casting of our bronze water inlet for the ford banger engine arrived today. Couple of months off yet till I have some numbers in stock. Working on the top outlet as well. #amodelford #bangerford #hotrodjalopy
