  1. I will get you the real color from some of my contacts, What are you using for your model, The Lindberg Dodge is an older model and the OSP had that year as a test and they were white units. The light bar is all blue and Tamiya transparent is what you want to use, There are two different brands of light bars being used. here is the 2015 body greg
  2. I liked his choice in dogs- Dalmatians greg
  3. So, sorry, My trifocals failed me, It is 1966 on the license plate from Gotham amended the header greg
  4. Great build, I liked the movie, 'just go real fast then turn' great lines both in the movie and on the car, If your interested PM me if you want the skis and poles from the old MPC poncho kit? greg
  5. A friend found this at Marshall's dept. store. Measured up against Batmobile kit, $19.99 price tag, wheels don't move, NJcroce, La Verne, CA. # DC 3930 Don't know if this as been discussed before, new item to me. http://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbqkrgrggksbtqxwbfrddsrftbss,vi/tdbbbqbsxgqtwkrffxrgdbtrwkg/8/3457628/13265735/P1040323-vi.jpg http://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbqkrgrbtkffwgxwbfrddsrftbss,vi/rdgsqskwdxrgdbtrwkgxgtbfwtkf/8/3457628/13265735/P1040325-vi.jpg http://media.fotki.com/1_p,rrbqkrgtwgdkwgrxwbfrddsrftbss,vi/tksgqfdbxrswtsdgtdxttwkwktsb/8/3457628/13265735/P1040326-vi.jpg http://store.njcroce.com/products/10-batmobile-with-bendable-figures-classic-tv-series.html greg
  6. Dennis I would contact Charlie Rowley, he is on this site, He may be of assistance, If my memory serves me right I recall some type of funny show car model that had dual chain drive system, The dual chain drive system consist of 4 chains all together, The two drive chains then a second chain on the wheel sprocket to the other axle sprocket which was the same size as the front axel sprocket. The first axle had two sprockets on each side, one for the drive and the second one for the rear axle. O=O >* greg
  7. Just to tease you with some eastern USA culinary roadside delights, not drive-ins, but another lost part of Americana http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2lhr8w It's a little long, but will wet your appetite. greg
  8. Looks good, better throw in a clutch pedal! greg
  9. Here is a 'Bing' translation of the description from the website: He says the "Guilquipedia" that the artist who devised and completed this work was called "Arman". Baptized by his giving of air as Armand Pierre Fernandez in his native nice, Armand, then known as "Arman" developed most of his career as an artist in the United States. He died in 2005 and the work that stands out for our hosts fierreras, this work entitled "Long Term Parking" which lies somewhere in France since 1982. Twenty tons of reinforced concrete and some dozen other French cars make together a work of intense value than from its almost eighteen meters high overlooking the viewer and reproaches from his opulent texture. A small series of postcards topped the brief explanatory text of midnight with work during your pregnancy. Nothing more to say in these days of low harvest of our pages. We said goodbye and continue it tomorrow.
  10. Very nice build, May add the 8th gray hair: did you miss the wipers? greg
  11. It's not my parents first car but it was the family's first new car, a 1954 Ford wagon, no Squire just a 4 door wagon powder blue with a white top, My dad was so proud about how he went about shopping around and worked the dealerships by saying this one had a better offer and could this one beat it. He worked at a office furniture plant and made cushions to cover the folded down seats, first big trip in it was to Florida. Loaded up my brothers and sister and we rode to Florida. My car seat was a Coca-Cola cooler between my dad and mom, My entertainment was naming all the brands of cars on the roads. Was family wheels until 1960 when my dad brought home a 1960 Chevy Impala convertible, 348 w the 3 speed automatic, Off white with bronze interior and bronze inset in the side stripe, crossed flags for the 348, What a lemon with the quadrajet carb and the hydro tranny that kept the thin in the shop. greg
  12. To quote W. C. Fields: "Used to carry a bottle in case of snake bite, use to carry a snake too!" Be careful, research nearest anti venom location. greg
  13. Thanks, another project, phew!
  14. Just beautiful, would you share the plans? greg

  24. Did the kit come with a windshield? If not I have a vacuum form buck for a 2 piece window for the old Etter cab greg
  25. Ah that answers the two plates, one for the state and one for the district? Would you have put one set of chains on the front since there wasn't positraction back then? interesting radiator cover, if you notice the water is frozen around the hood and the cap, Is that the rest of the lamp post by the tree in the lower right corner? Interesting that it is a racially integrated photo that skews historical propaganda. greg
