Lots of good stuff here , Thanks for posting

Favorite is researching a build and locating the right parts most hated is chrome foiling trim

Badgers Facebook page has a great video explaining air brush facts including feed , action and mix.

Thank You Actually I built that from various pieces of exhaust parts, Did some heat and bend. Jon

Could be a Dart or a Savoy

Not all of the Beach Boys recordings have the lyric.

The Beach Boys added a line to their version "You'll see her all the time, just gettin' her kicks now, (Go Granny, go, Granny, go, Granny, go) With her four speed stick and a four - two - six now;"

For me it has to be a 64. My version :

looks more like a Viper

Also found that a red felt pen works better than red paint

I had an old can of Sapphire (?) Blue Metalflake that I decanted for a project. Needed more none of the local stores carried it. So I ordered a can off ebay along with a couple bottles for backup. So yes it is still out there just not locally in my area

Will do

Thanks for all the responses , Ordered the P by P long fined.

Found one listed as a "Long Fin"

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.

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

Not familiar withe GMC's but what are the bumps on the valve covers for on the Cadillac 331 in the Roth's Outlaw kit for ?? Google did not show any on stock or hot Rod engines

Thanks . Maybe it just looks big because I mostly build T's, A's and Deuces LOL

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

Now i need to find 2 black pre wired distributors with red wires so I can scratch build one

Drag City Casting has a nice chopped 5 window
