What's being used now are the custom taillight lenses from the 1964 El Camino and station wagon: (Images via Drastic Plastics' Fotki album) They fit flush with the opening OK, but you have to cut them down and add thin sheet plastic around them to make bezels - or find an earlier issue of the '65 wagon/El Camino to get the correct lenses and bezels; just another thing AMT messed up but never fixed (like the hood).

Steve, when the cloning was done did they finally fix the hood so it's even all the way across where it touches the cowl?

Pit Stop (filmed 1967, released 1969) was a good noir-ish take on stock car racing; free on YT:

Maybe Thunder Alley? Annette and Fabian that time.

Cave of the Bare Clan was the X-rated knockoff of the movie Clan of the Cave Bear - oh rats, "bear" is a word I just used.

Yoda's voice sounds a lot like the voice of Fozzie Bear.

True cigarettes have a little extruded plastic tube with a triangular pattern in the filter end which you shouldn't have lit.

I was bound and determined to have something vintage as my first car - preferably from my ancestral home in Kentucky to avoid the Chicago rust. In 1976 I spotted this Shore Green '50 Plymouth in West Paducah and bought it for $200: My uncle and I drove it home to my grandparents' house... and there it sat for four years until after my grandfather died and Baptist Hospital bought up the whole block of houses. My mom went back down there to help my grandmother move and sold the car to some guys from Kevil who were going to restore it; they paid $200 for it so I broke even.

Finally scored a good unbuilt MPC '33 Chevy panel truck: Complete and not showing any tire damage.

Now if only AMT '64 Chevelles/El Caminos/wagons would tank in value...

Many brave hearts are asleep in the deep so beware, beware

My dad took this slide of my mom holding a snowball in July 1956, on Trail Ridge Road near the summit of Rocky Mountain National Park, in front of the lava cliffs: So I decided to re-create the pose when we went there last week, but I got the angle wrong. At least I remembered to stick my tongue out like Mom did:

Wow. Are they hiring? In the 1980s I used to work for Diversified Printing in Pasadena, and at the time our claim to fame was having the only color copier outside of West L.A. We'd get the occasional props people come in to make copies of things like the Fall Guy logo to be pasted onto miniature trucks for the stunts that were too dangerous or expensive to do full-size. ETA: At 8:31 in the first video you can see the printing plate for the flyer announcing the dance contest "Win a (sic) RKO Movie Contract" from Spielberg's bomb 1941.

"Learn to feel" was Joan Crawford's advice to prospective actors; from this example the feeling could have been taken down a notch:
