I have not yet purchased my plans.  I am in possession of my Corvair engine and just sent off the case for a few mods on the case and to have the crank magnafluxed, reground, nitrided, and fit with a 5th bearing.  I am also about 50% complete constructing a 4x8 foot CNC router table to cut my parts out of flat aluminum sheets (I am 51 and have no desire to speed the next couple of years with a pair of shears in my hand). Once my CNC table is complete and tested I will be buying the plans.

Hi Thomas, my name is Dave and I live in Alvin.  I will be starting on a scratch-built 750 later this year and am recently returned (as in, just returned yesterday) from William Wynne's 32nd Corvair College. If you would like some help or company whilst building, or even want to have lunch, I make myself available.
