Incredible! Hope I get to see this in person someday.
Are you keeping the factory IRS cradle or re-making one of your own?
Jeff-
Thanks!! I am just goin to clean up the factory cradle. when the car is done you wont even be able to see it so there isnt much point in reinventing the wheel. if I had unlimited hours maybe, but this is all nights and weekends.

Thanks, 4/18/17 is the 75th anniversary of the Doolittle Raid on Japan that involved the Ruptured Duck B-25.
The windshield line is one of my favorite parts of the bombers

well I am back again with another big update for you all. it has been an incredibly busy last couple of weeks and I have a good amount of progress to show for it.
Since I last updated you a few weeks ago I got the front suspension of the car to a point that the car could be rolled around once I bolted on the new brakes and wheels. so here are the update shots of that happening.

My wife and I had a great time at the airshow. A lot of people loved it, some had no clue what was happening. However, after some brief explanation they got it and loved it as well. I forget most people have probably never seen a car being built like this ever. It was a great experience.
Awesome pics.
Thanks!

You are an artist, Man! If I could start over at a much earlier age, I'd hope to achieve a work product that looks like yours (either that or a massive stack of cash). The results you produce are clearly genetic, however--that's a huge part of genuine art, not that I'd know . . .
What is the projected weight of this vehicle?

thanks for the compliments. I have been practicing almost daily for over 12 years.
If the car weight much more than 1800lbs or so I will be annoyed

Ha, thanks Greg. I am ok with fabricator. To be a master would imply that I have mastered it. However, I have much to learn still and many more skills that I'd like to sharpen.

My desire has always been to show as much as I can. I have always laughed at the idea that you should only take pictures after having cleaned your workspace of clutter or only a start and finish shot. some people are afraid to show the process for the sake that they might be criticized or told that they are doing it wrong. If I post something and someone has a question as to why or says that there is a better way than bring it on! I love learning from those with better knowledge and always like to tweak the ways in which I do things so that I continue to build on my skill set. So if you ever want to know the why or the how just ask away!

I want to give you guys a little back ground information on my seats for the Duck. They are real 73 year old B25 bomber seats. The seats used in B25s during WWII were made out of 1/2'' plate steel to provide the only form of armor in those planes. They weren't ergonomic at all and were quite a pain to get in and out of. Once the war was over, they decided to install this seat design as a fix for the armored seats. Almost all of the B25s that still fly today have these exact seats. By doing research and hunting, I scored a set for the Duck.

Dakota Digital jumped on board Project Ruptured Duck and came through with building what I was told is the most extensive gauge system they have put together. I had to have as many read outs as possible to keep with the bomber theme and they really did a killer job. This is the maximum number of individual analog gauges that they can use in their new HDX systems. I also will have their TPMS system on it as well. Enjoy.

Hahahaha! I was waiting for someone to notice that!
so the "nose temp" gauge is so that I can monitor the air temperature inside the Plexi-glass nose of the car. plexi-glass and high heat aren't friends and therefor I will be closely monitoring the interactions between the two so I can make sure I don't quickly ruin the plexi-glass. I will be building a system of nose flaps and fans into the hood sides that will open to allow air to quickly circulate and drop the temp in the nose to keep the plexi-glass comfortable.
so there you have it.

you are right on limited real estate. however, I don't want any gaping holes that are permanently open as I think it would take away from the look on the nose. I also don't want to do it the easy way :welder: haha

The process is called vacuum forming. So, I will build it out of metal first. A fiberglass mold will be made off of the metal panels, Then a vacuum box is made to hold the mold. Then the glass is sucked down into the mold using vacuum and hot air to make it maluable. Here is another piece I had made in the same way.

I received my new gauge bezels last week. the black one in the center is a Wing Flap/ Landing Gear indicator out of a B25. So naturally I had my bezels made to the same style and the small bezels are the same outer size as the B25 gauge.

I have a few ideas for the flap/landing gear indicator we shall see!
As for the bet, you should win because I have a long way to go however I will take you on that bet. If I win it's still a good deal for you because I'll probably get 45 to 50 miles per gallon, lol.

I just read through all 43 pages of this build, I currently serve and am a Chief in the US Navy. I'm out to sea as i type this and it took me over 3 days to be able to look through all 43pgs. The internet speed out to sea is like old school dial up so its rough on downloading all those amazing photos of your work, i currently own a 55 Chevy 2dr Hdtp and you have really given me some inspiration to start modifying my own car and something to look forward to when i get back home.
I was hoping though if someone knows why there have been very little updates on the car since Jan.? If the build got moved to a different thread or website please let me know. I wish you nothing but the best on the remainder of the build and look forward to the updates.

a man of few words i guess. :BlahBlah: but really i am not normally ever on this forum i created an account a while back following a DIY trifive Chassis that ironworks was considering putting into production for the consumer, initial post about it were on the trifive website that led me to lateral-g. but to further reiterate the fabrication skills by the builder of this car does inspire me to pick up a torch and start melting the metal on my 55. :snapout:

The builder got a new job in a different state. I think he has been very busy with the move and the new job. Its hard for most everyone to keep a project on track (especially if your away from home and can only plan your project for now)... take inspiration wherever you can find it!!

Hey Mike! Thank you for your service!! Ketzer is correct I did move jobs and states, bought my first house and dog. New everything pretty much. The car is definitely still in the works. I've been slowly working on it. Actually I'm working on the door hinges currently and plan to have those CNC machined very soon so I can make more inner structure and the doors! I promise some more pictures and updates soon. Thanks again for following this dream of mine. Guys like you are where I find my inspiration.
Brycen,
Thank you for your support and congrats on the moves you have made in life. Really looking forward to the updates on the car. When i get back from being out to sea ill shoot you a few shots of my 55. A lot of work to do on it but i am able to hop in it and bang some gears. I picked up a thermal arc 211i welder a little while back and tought myself how to mig and have had the hull techs here on my ship start teaching me how to tig weld. It really is a art and you have become a master of your craft. Again thank you for the support

Do you use a drill or a punch for the Cleco's?

Hi everyone. I know it's been a while since I've added an update on here. I have been making slow progress on the car but that is turning into more normal progress as I was trying to finish a truck I built and that is now sold and gone.
I have been working on multiple design aspects including door hinges, custom-made collapsable steering column, upgraded front suspension, and tubular rear control arms. at the same time, I have been working on solidifying the floor structure to get the foundation ready for inner body structure. here are some pics.

These are mock-up hinges I designed and had 3d printed so I can finalize the design before having the hinges machined out of aluminum.

Many of you have been following the Duck build since its conception and have supported me in a variety of different ways. Most of you have seen over the last few months I recently opened my shop, PRD Design. Well, business is doing great with customers that I couldn't be happier to be working with, and believe it or not, that isn't the best thing that has happened over the last year. My wife brought our beautiful baby girl into this world last November, and with that, I feel like the most blessed man on the planet.
Between striving to be a good Dad and Husband and owning a shop, my time for my personal projects is basically zero. Unpaid free time to continue on the car is not a luxury I will likely have for many years, so with that said, I have decided to put the opportunity out there for a potential partnership with the right client to get the Duck done sooner than later. There are many details to discuss but in a nutshell, what I am offering is an investment in the Duck to help me see it to completion and then onto the sale of the car leading to the donation to the Homes For Our Troops charity. OR purchase the project with the agreement to see it finished and donate to HFOT charity.
Again, a lot to unwrap there, but if you have any interest, please feel free to call the shop at 641.619.5859, and we can discuss it further from there.
Sincerely,
Brycen Smith
