Good eye Kurt!

Might anyone know of a model kit that has a parachute similar to this?

"The Hill-Zartman Willys was always called the Filthy Forty, The name was mostly the result of what happened at the 1962 Nationals when Charlie Hill deliberately put the car into the middle of a muddy field to keep onlookers away, and never bothered to wash the car prior to eliminations " - Gasser Wars. This is my rendition of this iconic car.

Nice Build. What Color Blue?

Might anyone know if aftermarket 1:25 Moon Spinner Gas Caps are available?

Just finished. I was infatuated with this car as a very young lad. It was a local east coast D/Gasser in the sixties. It was a moose of a car. However, it ran like a deer. The body is a rare Good Stuff resin 38 Chevy resin body combined with an AMT 37 Chevy Gasser kit. The paint is 1954 Ford Golden Rod Yellow from MCW Auto Finishes. The decals are from Pole Kat decals. Hope you like

FYI for those you you following this thread. I found these at Harbor Freight. A big thank you George BoJaciuk.

Thanks Rich. I didn't even know BIC disposable lighters have springs???????

I think wrapping it with wire might be the way to go. I do like George B's idea of a spring and shrink wrap. However, I need to find a miniature spring to do this. Springs from a ball point pen are a bit too big. Checking around to see if I can find smaller springs????? Not sure where to find these smaller springs.

Might anyone know if any after market dealers sell 1:25 scale old time corrugated radiator hose (with the ridges)? I know many deallers sell smooth radiator/coolent hose. Looking for the ridges however.

Pro Tech radiator hose is nice. However, it is smooth line. Does anyone make corrugated radiator hose?

Thanks Steve

Chris: GREAT thought thank you! Will check out the AMT 34 Ford Pickup.

Thank you Matt

Looking for 1:25 scale headlights such as these. Might anyone have any suggestions?

Looking for head light bezels as in the following PICS. The Revell anglia bezels are a bit too large for what I'm looking for. Might anyone know what kit , resin caster or aftermarket vendor that has these? Thanks in advance. Jim

Looking for a resin extra large Moon Tank 1:25 scale (10 to 12 gallon). I purchased this one a few years ago and can't remember where (SEE PIC) ? Any help PLEASE.

Have communicated with Butch Leal. The color is Ford Poppy Red.

Steve Does the reissue have one of these? Trying to find an old Revell 55 Chevy Kit is next to impossible. Unless, you want to remortgage your house to get one.

Might anyone know where I can get a 60's Moon Hood Scoop (resin or model kit )? See pics below.

According to the Slixx Decal sheet it is Kandy Apple Red over Pearl White

MCW has the color.

Jeff Scott Kapelusch and I used the same color for our builds. It was Tamiya Clear Yellow Acrylic over a silver base. Jim

Bruce: The Ultra Sonic cutter sounds very intriguing. Anyone, have any experience with this?

Would like to hear a few suggestions/methods how you acquire a thin, clean and crisp cut when working with styrene and resin (e.g. cutting a front end on a gasser build to make a removable front clip) other than the back of a Xacto blade and patience. Thanks Jim
