I was curious of the same question. It looks like DSE was making nice progress. Its also off their website completely as if it was never there.

Here is a another bit of info on Poteets world.
My good friend and machinest was involved in the Nascar Cup Engine build that Jesel placed in a Dodge P-up for Bonneville and set every record imaginable in.
Poteet saw this mother run and had to have one like it for Blowfish. Jesel stated "I am not in the engine building business". Poteet then said, "well I want that one then". Eventually that exact engine found its way into Blowfish.
Poteet is the man !

nope not there. It disappeard a while ago from there website. I thought maybe it was cause he wanted to keep it a secrete. like Stuart's 69.
Maybe he had a falling out with DSE and pulled the car.

They would cost around $800.00 each.He was kind of rude about it. Like he could care less about me,my wants or needs.So I just thought I would keep my fikse on my car,besides they are 100 times better,stronger,nicer,and I bet straighter then any pc.of crap made in china.By the time he gets around to selling them to the rest of the public Vintage wheel works will already be selling there V48 at half the price.

At the KC. goodguy's I had a nice long visit with Kyle Tucker on a bucnh of differant things.I was going to ask him why Poteet's firebird was not in the project section anymore but as I was just about to ask,his phone rang and he steped a side to take the call.And rest of the weekend he was super busy and only had time for a quick few words.But the time he spent talking w/me I could tell he he really cared about what were chatting about.Then later in the day I saw Stacey taking the time to visit w/my 3 son's. I just waited off to the side and looked on,and when my son's walked away they were smiling from ear to ear,and my middle son Bryce (17 years old) looked at me and said wow she is a really nice person.My two younger son's had been telling her about the hot rod project's they wanted to build someday when they had job's.She stood there and listened to them as if they had hundred dollar bill's falling out of there pockets.Sorry about getting off the subject but wanted to ad these thought's. To DSE, KYLE & STACEY Thank's Scott Mock.
