I kinda like both, but I agree make "C" the Track T in the background and I vote for "C:

I found a can opener that I can open the bottom of the can with. I hold it down in a bucket in case of a slip up, I then just puncture the can enough to release the pressure. After all the pressure has released I finish opening the bottom then pour out the paint into a jar.(be careful, when the mixer ball rolls out it can make a big splash). The paint will still hold some gas for a couple days so I place a surgical type glove over the jar with a small pin hole in one of the fingertips. This allows gas to escape but doesn't let air back in. Your results may vary.

This one

Over the years I have pulled up many a distributor and rotated the rotor 180 degrees. You can always rotate the engine by hand with the plugs out and feel or test for compression at no 1

Just for my own satisfaction I research every aspect of engine when I build it, down to the correct firing order and #1"s location on the distributor.

This one from a stalled build. Not finished yet. The air cleaner top is just set on it, it is not ready to be installed. Whether I would be called a good builder may be selective opinion.

I have found flat ends on ebay drill bits mostly from china. Thanks for the link mr obsessive now I have someplace else to buy them

I checked out the set in the Revell 41 P/U Gasser kit and they are not what I am looking for. The ones in the picture you posted might be doable . I did find a resin set on ebay but they are very crudely done. Thanks

Looking for some Dump thru the fenderwell headers for a Hemi. Any body make any ? Thanks

Spaz Stix ultimate Clear is rumored to work over BMF and Molotow without dulling them. I haven't tried it yet but it may work over Alcad.

Thanks I will check it out. I think I have one in my stash

Been retired for 4yrs. I started back into building just afterward. Thought I would have more free time available. As it turns out I have less time. Retirement= more work, lower pay and the boss NEVER leaves

A great talent the video at the above link is worth the watch.

So far they work great. I haven't been launching any parts across the room when they slip. (they haven't slipped yet)

I picked up these at the hobby shop , works Ok for me , No deep pockets needed

Competition Resins also has a Torqueflite Long Tail Trans

I hate to break the news to you but that kit has the big back window , I just opened it for a fellow club member that was looking for one.

This issue has the large rear window.

I expect there to be a tremendous amount of Classic and Custom cars lost also. Ray Goulart '50 Olds was also destroyed in the fire. Gary Cerveny lost 30 cars in the Southern California - Malibu fires. The fires will have a big impact on our hobby as well as the lives, livelihood and property of others. Sad times indeed

I recently bought a Excel wooded box set . The handle is all metal and it can't seem to stay tight.

Thanks guys , extremely helpful Jon

Is there any database online that I can use to check the release date of kits ? Interested in the date for a AMT 41 Plymouth #6583 Thanks

I just happen to have that parts-pak. Those will probably work Thanks

Do you have a part number for the carbs ? My price sheet and the Fotki page doesn't show the carbs .

I can get a manifold from R&M but still need some decent looking Rochester 2bls.
