Motor City Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 When I was a student in the 1970s, it was $24.00 for season tickets (6 football games) in the student section. We had a lot of good times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walk-up student tickets were $3 and I could park on the street for free on the residential streets between Main, Pauline, and Stadium Blvd. Great times.....TB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember walking across the Diag and seeing a bunch of protesters with their signs opposing whatever was the issue of the moment Then I noticed their scraggly clothes, graying hair and wrinkled faces. Then I realized, they were the very same people who were protesting on the Diag 25 years previous. They never grew up or out! Obviously, I'm being a bit facetious here, but the U of M, and now Ann Arbor pretty much in its entirety, these days, is a whole 'nother world. I did take note, too, that for our next two rounds of "Charm School", we were sent to Duke University. Those were excellent events as well, but sure don't remember seeing any protesters on their campus....TB Edited September 18, 2022 by tim boyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc Janssens Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Maybe it's a dragster version of the '69 Dodge Coronet, of which the body after a year or so will be used for a showroom stock version borrowing the underpinning of that other cloned Coronet, the '68! Dunno just guessing, bet the boys at Round-2 are having a good laugh when reading this tread, and why not...the hobby is all about fun Cheers Luc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drag version of the 69 Coronet, "The Super Hemi" would be a welcome subject. But, I think the mystery kit could be something for the altered minds thinking out of the box. But, who knows.

ss2000 Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Hopefully it's this if it's a t-bird, although I still think it's either the 65 Chevelle drag car or the topless Cutlass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you My gut feeling too is either the AWB Time Machine Chevelle or the AWB 64 Olds F-85 called the Streaker. I'm leaning towards the AWB 64 Olds Streaker.

I ate numerous lunches there when I got my MBA at the attached Fuqua School. I didn’t see any protests while there, but after Duke won the NCAA Men’s basketball championship in 1991, the local Hell’s Angels chapter showed up to join the celebration on the main campus!

I thought the point of this thread was to specifically discuss the "completely recreated tooling" kit that Round2 strongly hinted at? Your thread, your rules. But to this point 20 pages filled with speculation around this one release from Round2, now about to be opened to a free for all? 😵 Like I said, your thread, your rules. I'm just going by your very first post 20 pages ago. Edited September 22, 2022 by Mr. Metallic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
