  • Another monster Unlimited turned into a trainer

    More correctly, it has been returned to its original configuration.

    Dwelle Sea Fury Engine Runs
    "Critical Mass" is no more.
    It retains the 3350 and gets a new glass cockpit instrument panel, but the rest is stock TT 20.

      Looking fantastic, ok she isn't the sleek racer, but she will be flown again and thats what matters

          Any chance she'll be back at Reno to race in a Bronze/Silver kind of way?

            Just glad she's not in pieces collecting dust in the back of a hangar. Looks nice!

                I do believe 3350.

                  I heard 3350 cuz that's what Mr. Dwelle was used to flying behind!
                  Nice to see it in the air again (almost). It would be nice if it could show in Reno again just for the nostalgia.

                    ...And will be flying again. Unbeliveable airframe rework!
                    Perhaps It won´t be a racer again but they did a very, very nice job.

                      Happy to see it almost in the air than in a hangar the past 10 years. And rumor had it a couple years ago that they wanted to bring it to Reno too for the nostalgia, hope that happens

                        Last I spoke with Tom, he mentioned that he'd love to bring it to Reno for display. The paint scheme that's going on this is tremendous! I hear rumor that there will me a memento to the Taz as well.

                          Not with that much oil smoke... That could only be a 3350! :-D (besides, it looks like a 3350 and I can't see the Dwelles running anything else).

                          AFAIK, Argonaut is still the only 2800-powered Fury out there.

                            There is now another one in the UK converted by Sanders.
