TNT Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 That is some darn good art work there. That engine bay looks about as good as it gets. The hitch hiker looks so good i imagine a texas oil cadillac cruised up and gave her a ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W Humble Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 A head-turner, and I don't just mean the hitcher! Does a C&W song go with that vignette? I wish I'd learned how to do figures; I want to finish a couple of dios (at age 77!) but it's more important for me to use my remaining time to just get my kits done! A diorama is not much without people in it, usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W Humble Posted July 9, 2022 Share Posted July 9, 2022 Oh, and very accurate 265 V-8: the manifolds and oil filter are right on. So many don't realize why a SBC gasket set comes with two driver's side pan rail versions; no built-in filter accommodation until 1957! Some '57's were stock with 265's; as a friend of mine found out to his chagrin; thought he had a 283! I used to drive a '56 Chevy Class II fire tanker for the USFS, and it didn't have much torque, but would really clock up -- if you had a good road for it! GMC's used Pontiacs!!

Paul Payne Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I can see why the hitch hiker did not want to sit in the truck- ouch! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TarheelRick Posted August 25, 2022 Share Posted August 25, 2022 I continue to find more details I missed every time I look at this one. It is so simple in concept, but so well finished. Whereabouts on Rte. 66 is this, I happen to have an empty right seat in my F-150. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
