  1. Available for reading online or download here: https://archive.org/details/1968-04_202210/1963 04/ A few issues are missing. August, September, October, November 1965, and April 1971 on to the end. You can find the covers to all issues here: http://99wspeedshop.com.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/modelcarscience.html Internet archive has many interesting books and magazines. Car Model is also available, but only to read online if you log in. Look around, you will be pleased with what you find on both these sites.
  2. We made a deal. I got the decals, I sent him a set of wheels. Good deal.
  3. https://public.fotki.com/quiet-eric/nhra-1953-rulebook/img-0299.html Account has been blocked. Please correct.
  4. What they're doing with the wheel offsets is altering the car's thrust angle. The setup you describe is pointing the TA to the driver's right & is for dry-slick dirt tracks. I'm pretty sure no one did this in the 1970's. I built the red white & blue Valiant Scamp & the Warren Stewart Dart as a kid in the late 1970's. Had no trouble with all 4 wheels touching ground.
  5. I have one of those timing lights, too. My father bought it mid 1970's. Still works. I have some old Sears Automotive catalogs which show all the Penske stuff. Even had shifters & custom wheels.
  6. Was a professional Master Auto Technician for 35 years. Wide range of experience. Got a huge personal library of car books & magazines.
  7. 57 years old. 1st model kit was the original issue of the MPC Dick Dastardly's Mean Machine. 1st glue kit was the AMT 66 Buick Modified Stocker. I have every model I have ever built. Currently like to build 60's & 70's race cars & customs, but there are exceptions.
  8. I could use these. (Yeah, I'm new here). What would you want other than steel rims? I'm low on those myself, don't want to give up any. I got some stuff on eBay for sale, I could stop the auction & send you some of these. https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002742 https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002745 https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002746 https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002747 https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002748 https://www.ebay.com/itm/234759002749
