  1. In a fight with Sonny Liston, when he was still Cassius Clay, Liston swung a massive punch which Clay dodged (danced like a butterfly). Liston dislocated his shouder with that punch. Many believed it would have been an instant knockout, maybe worse.
  2. His career might have been shorter had the punch that dislocated Sonny Liston's shoulder connected instead of hitting air. I think he dodged a killer that time. '67 or so.
  3. In the glove box of my 1934 Chevy,
  4. Modified the springs to bring the ride height down. Getting close. Here are the mods to the rears.
  5. I thought they made only motorcycles. My uncle Jo had one in the 40's.
  6. Always liked those Yours is up there with the best .That is some impressive detailing!
  7. Dry fitted the kit's suspension to measure the width of tread and ride height. Mocked up the resin suspension to check the difference. Enormous. Much mods will be required to keep the wheels within the fenders and the ride height reasonable.
  8. B-N-L Resins: http://bnlresins.ipage.com/shoppingopencart/index.php?route=common/home
  9. Completed the 283. Made a transfer case sifter and a 4 speed shifter. I guess I'll have to change the tranny on the 454.
  10. And we have paint. Nice texture but awfully slow drying stuff.
  11. A Chevy HD 4X4 kit , GoodYear Tracker tires and six lug rims for the '65 Chevy pickup.
  12. Received the 4X4 kit & the Good Year Trackers c/w six lug wheels.
  13. Body work is coming along. Having a bit of difficulty making that seam disappear. Started on the interior. Built the 283 anyway. It'll go in the engine display. A few touch ups and a fuel line and she's pretty well done. There is no fuel pump. I'll have to cobble one.
  14. Mike, please describe the engine. It looks ferocious.
  15. Wow. Nice and crisp. I had that picture in my potential things to build but it'll never be this nice. Beautiful work.
  16. I have an R190 but I have plans for it. May have to get another one.
  17. What cab should one use as a base to reproduce this baby?
  18. OK, I'm back home, here's the photo of the kit.
  19. www.worldlicenceplates.com There you go Scott. The entire world.
  20. Thank you Richard. I want the "lived-in" look, and I want to keep changing it for interest.
  21. Something I've never seen or even heard of, a 1970 Bonneville that you can buils either as a convertible or an El Camino type pickup. The photo of the kit is in my camera which is in the truck, which is in the parking lot 4 floors below and I'm not going back down tonight. Maybe tomorrow.
  22. That was going to be my next move. Now it WILL be my next move.
  23. I seem to remember the eBay listing said 66 Thunderbirds. I put the stanchions on my engine display stand but I can't get the "rope" to drape right. I'll have to try something else.Wow, that was an ordeal, it took three tries to get photobucket to uplaod it without jamming.
  24. Mine will likely be a '57 Ford. I plan to redo mine as a wagon. I'd use the back for this.
