In 1971, I rear ended an old lady that backed out of her driveway in front of me on the ice, and I ended up with a 1966 Coronet 500 2dr hardtop with a 1966 Charger front end.
For me it was THUNDER ROAD with Robert Mitchum. That '57 Ford hauling "Shine" and ripping through that roadblock got me going when I was in grade school back in the '60s. I lost count of how many '57 Fords I've built since then. For TV shows it was "HIGHWAY PATROL" with Broderick Crawford.
Hi Brian, it's me the other tree shaker in the diecast hobby. I've been building models for over 50 years and I consider model building a hobby that takes more than just creative juices. I agree on the Gibson Engines....pitiful.....
