I hope it comes back MrMike. And Rob Hall is right, it's taxes. That's why a bunch of stuff is filmed in Canada too. That's why Flashpoint was taped in Canada. I loved Flashpoint and at first, they tried to make it look like LA and implied that it was, but they gave up on that. You would see all the local cops with the red striped bands on their caps and their Canadian police uniforms. It was still a good cop show.

Brings back memories. Looks great on that open trailer. That's the way they used to haul em and towed em with a 10 ton box truck.

Looks good. Can't wait to see it finished. Hope the show come back on soon too.

Has anyone ever tried painting a piece of glass and then sitting the tire on the white paint? Seems like it would be smooth and stiff and just let the raised letters touch the paint in most cases, but not all.

Nice looking color. I like that.

You are correct ammonia will clean up the brushes and Windex will remove it from models too if you make a mistake.

I used a regular wide brush on smaller parts, but you can air brush it too.

Use that Future floor polish for clear. It's self-leveling and you can even brush that on. It's not as glossy as a clear coat, but it does look good. It should not interact with your decals and paint.

Looks good. When I ran dirt I used to run against Jay Bird Marlin. He's a cousin to Sterlin I think. Sterlin lives right down the road from a friend of mine. On occasion you can hear some loud engine fire up from my friends house.

Some may know this or figured it out. The first pic in this list was taken from the south end garage area of Nashville Fairgrounds Speedway. I went there as a kid and when I stopped playing in the dirt, I ran a grand National Sportsman car at this speedway. I built a 4 cyl car for a friend of mine to race here on the inside 1/4 mile track too.

Anytime. I used some old NASCAR slicks on mine since I wanted an asphalt modified. those wheels fit the NASCAR slicks perfectly. Plus, I had them in the parts stash. The car came from that Lindberg kit that had the Dodge L series tractor and flat bed trailer on it. I wanted it for the truck and trailer and did not want to waste the car, so it became a circle tracker.

Thanks. They came from some ASA Camaro kit my brother robbed from. He was going to toss some stuff and I took em. Ron Coon has them as w15 and w16. They are two-part wheels just like the ones I have in that pic. Scroll down to the bottom and find combo 1 and combo 2, that's what you want to get to save you the money. Ron Coon Resins | Wheels & Tires - For Circle Track Builds The finned aluminum Buick brake drums came from the Parts Box. I made an upside-down V bar for a roll bar. I made the shift that's in it. Gauges on the dash were from my stash along with the battery and gas tank in the back of it. I wired everything in it from the coil and dist. to the starter and battery.

The Lindberg kit has a 312 Thunderbird engine in it that might fit right in. I used it in my 40 Ford to build a circle track modified instead of going with a flat head. Just an idea.

It's a collectable thing. I used to date this woman that was a Coke collector. I don't recall ever seeing her drink one though. They make telephones, plates, dolls, those Christmas bears and tree ornaments and all sorts of that stuff. I doubt it will ever be worth more than what you pay for it, but people collect it.

Here's a link to the guy I bought it from. Scroll down it's in the middle of the page and it's just $25 bucks. Entz Racing Components | eBay Stores

Yeah, that's the one. I got em all. I found that truck on E Bay. Mobius made the 65 Satellite; I got the 69 Olds started. I got the Caddy. And I'm almost finished with the 36 Ford tow truck too. I had a guy that made decals for me on Facebook. Sorry to say he passed away a couple years ago. He made me the decals for the tow truck and Olds. I'm going ot try to copy the Olds root beer decals and see if I can make them for the Caddy. What did you use to make the scoop? I used the clear one out of that black 55 gasser kit and just sanded and shaped it.

I have a 3d printed truck. I think it's made for a slot car. It's a 50's Studebaker. It has a 4 3/4-inch wheelbase center to center. It's 2 1/2 wide at the doors. And the tracking is 2 to 2 1/4 max center of tire. If the frame is too long or short, I'd need two so I can cut and fab and make it work. The front has to be a two leaf springs and a straight axle and the rear has leaf's and a live axle. I've checked all kinds of kits in my stash and come up empty so far. Hope someone knows what kits I might have to buy to get what I need. Thanks for reading this.

More than welcome. I used to have a 70 Road Runner that I drag raced. You sure can tell where the Road Runner left off and where the Superbird took over.

That's the underside of the hood and you can clearly see where it was pieced together and the extra structure added. Hard to find a pic that shows just how big that seam is on the outside of the hood.

Well, you need to rescribe that line across the hood as that was stock. The Charger was used for the Daytona, and everything was made just for that car. The Daytona nose and wing will not fit on a Superbird and they are not the same design. The Superbird was created by taking a 70 Road Runner from the firewall back. It used Dodge Cornet front fenders and had it's on unique nose made for that car. The 70 ROad Runner hood was used, but it was too short and a panel was welded onto the hood. That's your scribe line you filled in that you need to rescribe now to make it look corrrect. And the Superbirds aero numbers were not as good as the Charger numbers either. And still till this day the Charger and Superbird has the lowest drag co efficent numbers among all makes. And since Mopar still has a military manfucaturing facility to this day (M1 Abrahams) the Daytona and Superbird were designed by Red Stone Arsenal rocket engineers from Alabama.

Love the color. Can't wait to see the final results.

I have a couple of those and the convertible version too. Using the converitble version to build the Jag from the original Vanishing Point movie to go with my Challenger.

Negative. The '68 Barracuda did not have the shaker or the same air cleaner. Only the '70 and '71 could have a shaker hood and air cleaner assembly. No Hemi after '71. There's two pics of a 68 notch back and fast back. Great cars though. I'd love to have a 65 though. I like the big window, but not a lot of room for big tires.
