That's the truth! At the Michaels I go to (or used to) the few Testors paint bottles they have are intermixed colorwise, and you can tell they don't bother restocking anything.

VCG has a couple of nice printed Y-block engines. The one I linked to and a couple of others. https://www.vcgresins.com/shop/p/fordy-blockhotrodenginekit If you have a 3D printer or know someone with one I have a file for one on Cults for free. Its not the detail of VCG however. https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/ford-312-engine-kit

K, I'ma go there. The only paint available is Rustoleum...and only in basic colors.

I think its a sign of the times. I've noticed that most stores these days have more limited inventory than before the pandemic. With the staffing shortages and many folks buying online it just makes business sense to reduce inventory IMHO.

Lookin' good Les!

Nice work! When I was young I had an older cousin with a 69 Goat. It was white with a white interior and I was totally in love with that car. We referred to him as "the cool cousin", and not just because of the car.

I looked at all of my saved references and didn't see anything. It would be nice to have though.

Ditto!

Sorry for your loss Mario, I lost my mom 3 years ago so I feel your pain.

I don't see that working. I bought a PS from Trailer Trash Kustoms but the heads were poorly printed and warped. I designed my own and printed them to a close enough match. Based on the block and head shapes I don't think a conversion would work, but I've been wrong before. And I just realized I didn't mirror the file for left & right side. ?

As did I! Sweet!

Awesome work!

Exactly! Just made one this week for my CBR chassis that req'd getting into a tight space.

Very nice build!

I used that same setup on my 67 Impala but changed the top to resemble the early Corvette injectors. you could modify yours to give it another look while reducing the height.

I used that setup in my 67 Impala but changed the top to make it resemble the early Vette injection. I think some kind of change like that would make it a nicer setup IMHO.

Very well done!

Very well done!

Well welcome to the fray Chris!

Yes, his products are top notch.

Great work!

Marked my chassis for the necessary cuts and realized that there won't be a whole lot left of the floorpan afterwards. Adding a pic of my "junkyard" engine. Checked the compression and oil pressure and all looks good. Six speed tranny came with it but will necessitate cutting the tranny tunnel out. On to the cutting!

Yeah, that's why it was my second choice! ?

Hey Pat, that was actually my second choice in the stash!

Well done!
