Finned Oil Filter ?
Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
That may work, I could polish it and it would look more realistic -
Was there ever a Finned Oil filter included in a KIt ? I need to duplicate the one pictured. R&M has one in resin but the fins are a bit small. Withe resin after the Molotow is applied then the red paint applied when I try and remove the red from the top of the fins it looks terrible,

I put the can upside down in a bucket and use a bottom edge cutting can opener (manual) . I let the pressure slowly release for awhile then finish cutting the bottom off. Be careful when you pour it out as sometimes the gas bubbles up and it may overflow. I put it in a glass jar with a surgical glove stretched over the top with a pin hole in a finger tip. This allows the gas to escape with out letting air back in.

Jon Haigwood replied to Jon Haigwood's topic in Model Building Questions and Answers
Thanks that makes sense. I am building two 331'S simultaneously , one for the Kookie T and one for a Deuce Roadsters. I don't normal work with GM's and I think breathers or oil fill ports Thanks Again -

Jackson Jerd Distributors ?

Thanks that is a big help -
Wifey picked up this kit at the Goodwill today , it looks like it is mostly there and unbuilt (no decals). There is no scale size on the box or instructions and only one ad on ebay ($500) with no size posted. I have found it listed as 1/24 th but it looks a bit bigger to me. Any info on this kit appreciated

Looking close at a bunch of pictures It looks like 2 wires go to the side they are mounted on and 2 cross over to the other side. And the same for the other side. I just can't figure out where they mounted the coils. Edit: actually it looks like the coil wires run under and behind the firewall -

Yes both the pictures and link will help. Originally Norm had a Tiki Women Head shift knob. It was later changed to a skull. There is also a skull mounted on the rear springs. They are not glow in the dark but I found some (2) skulls on this Hot wheel -
Gathering parts for my Kookie T and it had a Jackson Jerd Distributor. I am not familiar with these and my question is do they use a separate coil for each side ?
