I have a 1/18 die cast I bought several years back. It's by Road Signature.

Do you also have 1:1 project cars?

It may not help when selling single kits but I have been using pirateship.com for larger boxes. It's generally 3/4 the price of UPS online and can save on USPS, too.

"Customer states..."

Yeah, I especially love the ones where they say "my bf/brother/dad just fixed it." -
AMT Y block?
OneTrickPony replied to junkyardjeff's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Definitely not an accurate representation of a Y-block. They use a 1-2-1 exhaust pattern that comes out the side of the head. As mentioned above, they resemble a small block Chevy on the exhaust side. That looks more like an FE exhaust and the oil filter is in the FE location. The valve covers resemble Y-block items, though. -
1950s drag racing video
OneTrickPony replied to Scott8950's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I like that video. There are other similar videos on Archive.org. The NHRA channel streams on Pluto TV for free. The videos cover all years of racing. -
The CVT has a poor reputation but I was told by a Nissan tech that they will outlast the car with a simple oil change every 30K miles. I have over 130K on my 2010 Altima and the CVT works just fine. I use the simple method to change the fluid through the dipstick tube. Use a pump to suck out as much fluid as possible and replace it with the same amount of fluid (to the ounce.) I use the Valvoline CVT fluid in mine. As always, your mileage may vary 😉
